Explains his disappearance.
That's a new one though. We're signing guys who are already injured.
Thanks. Guess we'll see him when we see Walker.
Yes, first time I've ever seen the Spurs do this.
It took Durant a long time to completely heal from a Jones fracture.
Maybe the Spurs made a deal with his agent that if the Spurs signed him, he could continue to collect health insurance and in return, he would mop the floors at night.
In fairness, snakes probably take a bit longer to heal from such injuries.
If they did surgery about 4 months before he plays but Spurs probably 5 months no rush. So probably be back on the floor in January
WTF are you talking about? At no point was surgery even mentioned.
Calm down EX I said “If” if he is just letting it heal then 6 to 8 weeks but is more likely to break again if he selected not to have surgery
there was something weird in his disappearance and lack of news (i've red somewhere he was supposed to have signed for a chinese team, but no real link about that). The point is that the F.O. obviously see a very very good (defensive) value in him, considering they waived Blossomgame and that he may not be available for months due to the fracture he suffered...
His fx is considered mild and is expected to recover in 6-8 weeks from dx. Which, means that he may have another 2-4 weeks out before he gets back on the court. 75% of the patients will make a complete recover in this disposition without need for further tx.
Yeah but 25% of patients break it again that’s why most athletes select surgery even more for basketball players who run and jump on hard service.
But... but... the Spurs medical staff has cleared him to play! </lunacy>
I've been out of the loop for the last few days, so is Blossomgame already been ruled out for the 2 way spot?
He's been waived, so, yeah.
Don’t count on Huestis coming back anytime soon...he had a blog post in Oct talking about his injury.

He's actually supposed to be ready some time in December. The recovery time for Jones fracture surgery is 6-8 weeks, and that blog post was like 5 weeks old. I'm not a huge fan, other than his defensive chops, but it seems that the Spurs may be saving that second two way contract slot for Josh.
I think he’s gonna be in the G League for atleast a couple weeks...I doubt we see him in 2018
Was this the Scrub some people where excited about because of 1 shot he blocked that one time?
Hope he gets better soon.
He's actually elite defensively, but his offense, to this point, is not a zero, it's a minus...a negative. If they can get him to stand in the corner and hit threes, he would be a good 'get'.
I see.
He any good in transition?
