Is this about his hamstring injury that I have seen very few reports of?
Is this about his hamstring injury that I have seen very few reports of?
From what I have been able to find it is a hamstring injury. I wish there was more info out there about it.
Rumors starting about this being a serious injury and Fox out for months. I hope it’s BS
That's concerning...
Hope it's nothing serious
Might this give the Spurs some leverage in negotiating his new contract?
Hamstring injuries suck and can take weeks to heal and are easy to re-injure. I assume we will learn more, hopefully.
Hmm, perhaps Harper might be getting in some early reps after all. I hope it's not very serious though
Lame, hopefully it's not super serious tbh.
That video doesn't indicate someone has a serious injury that's season and contract altering.
Since his scheduled Asia tour was canceled, it’s unlikely this is just a minor, Grade 1 hamstring strain. More likely, it is Grade 2 or Grade 3, which would put the timetable on his return anywhere from 3-6 weeks to 3-6 months.
Honestly, I think NBA teams are going to be extremely cautious with calf and hammy injuries these days, especially given the increased risk of Achilles injuries that can follow. Teams don't want to take any chances with those muscle injuries escalating into something worse. This will probably factor into how Fox's return is managed.
Little over 9ish weeks till training camp, hopefully his recovery can be done in that window. Sucks he wouldn't get to do much/build chemistry in the informal runs that usually happen for 3-4 weeks before camp officially opens. Could be looking at more reps for Castle/Harper at lead guard to start along with plenty of opportunity for Vassell to turn corners and open the season strong.
Hope hamstring injury isn't a big deal. I'm really hyped up about the Fox/Alien duo.
Where have you heard these rumors? I hope it's not serious. Would be really terrible if so as I wanted these guys to build chemistry during the informal offseason runs before training camp.
why is anyone taking Dusty Garza seriously?
Thanks, appreciate it. Regardless of where the source comes from, if he's not going on those trips, it might not be a mild strain, otherwise, I don't see why he wouldn't go.
I don't love that the Spurs are being kinda hush-hush about this. I feel like they usually release something along the lines of "dealing with a hamstring issue, but expected to be ready for season (or miss 4-6 weeks or whatever)".
Maybe they are still unsure and waiting to know more themselves.
Or maybe they know and don't want to say anything in the dead of the offseason.
Or maybe Dusty is full of .
Probably true, but there is still smoke since he cancelled his Curry Brand tour.
Hopefully just means he's better off spending that time rehabbing and getting ready for the season instead of traveling and doing a bunch of events.
There are some severe storms and flooding going on over there right now - that could possibly be adding to it. IDK
Didn’t the Spurs not say anything about Vassell’s summer surgery last year til day 1 of camp? Or Kawhi dealing with quad issues all summer in 2017 and out for the start of 2017-18? Feels like this is their MO at this point no matter the regime. Even the Wemby news (cleared for activity) only came out a few days after the fact due to Wemby himself being interviewed by a French outlet. Spurs just don’t seem to issue news good or bad during the summer.
Hopefully Fox is good to go by camp. I’m wondering if this impacts extension talks or if it’s tangentially related (doubtful) in any way.
He was standing in the video.
Can't be that bad.
Maybe a trans-Pacific flight could aggravate even a mild injury.
