Any Braylon Mullins medical update

I didn’t slow it down but in real time it looks like the shoulder clears him and then something smacks him after the fact. It happens quick. Didn’t look terrible.

I agree that the impact didn't look terrible, when I first saw it I was hoping he just got poked in the eye. However the wooziness he displayed coming off the floor made it seem pretty bad. He couldn't even stand up straight without help, let alone walk. Unfortunately I think that's a better indicator of how severe of a concussion it is.

Recovery from concussions is just an incredibly varied thing. Like some have said, depending on the individual, he could be back in days or several weeks. All we can do is hope/pray for a full quick recovery.
Again, especially in this day and age, and considering the young man's skill set and potential future, expect Hurley & Co. to be extremely cautious with the young man.

We can seem to never get a full season out of our blue chip recruits.

The fact he was allowed to return to the bench during the game indicates to me that maybe the concussion isn't severe. Severe concussion usually means no stimulation or loud noise. I could be wrong maybe things have changed.

No I think you're right, good point that I didn't even think about.

When they cut to him on the bench one time, he didn't look good with his head in his hands. But that may have just been because he was upset at missing even more time

He was also engaged on bench giving a fist pump after crucial play. Hopefully minor

How long was Alex out with his concussion?

Wouldn't mind Mullins taking a game to try and get Ross and Stew back comfortable offensively.

Ross especially was making progress on that end before the hammy and hasn't been close to the same since.

Ross only made progress during wide open offensive games. He’s not good in the half court games which is now more of our style in the Big East. This isn’t a hammy situation anymore he just doesn’t handle it or pass it well in the half court, I’m not sure what all of you expect? Hes a talented kid but will be limited in the style we are playing as of late and unfortunately so is Stew. Our bench isn’t great scoring the ball but we will somehow need some magic without Braylon.

We need Braylon back asap but need to be careful with his health. He didn’t look good getting up, scary.

Good point because the music at PBA is very loud.
