Teams hide injury reports all the time it’s nothing new, did you know that Plaxico Burress played in the Super Bowl with a torn ligament in his ankle, Logan Mankins played out a season with a torn ACL.

I get it but they are hiding it for a competitive advantage which is why it is against the rules. We are discussing/arguing something totally different.

Sure, but the games where that margin means wins vs losses is what matters. KU game stands out. Maybe UNC.

We’ll find out a lot about this team without Castle against Indiana. Our schedule kind of ramps up perfectly in the OOC.

You do realize by posting you then qualify as absolutely insane….or maybe Forrest Gump…what was that saying ….
 
Gentlemen, and ladies....my God. Have faith in the team we suit up. I do. The Castle has been stormed.

The team will rebound.

Very bad news. Goodbye any chance for #6. He probably had significant ligament damage, but not enough for immediate surgery.

We've seen this story before. Castle will try to come back in January or February and won't be anywhere near the player he was. Then, they'll just shut him down the rest of the year.

That's a very pessimistic outlook based on what Hurley just said. I don't know why fans speculate so much on injuries when they have no information on the actual injury.

It would have saved a lot of aggravation if that was known earlier in the day. Dan Hurley “ It looks better already”. For me that does explain a lot. A procedure is not an MRI or surgery. Forgot about the other thing they sometimes do when there is swelling in the knee. Has anyone ever seen those needles?

"He's looking anywhere from early December to after that," Hurley said. "It's like maybe a two, three, four-week thing. It was a very minor procedure and the best-case scenario for him. He looks better already today. Great athletes tend to recover faster.

"He just had to get a little bit of clean-up. He didn't tear anything, just a very minor procedure."

This is not the end of the world. It does suck that we’ll miss him for likely Kansas, UNC maybe Gonzaga but it seems like he’ll be good to go for Big East play which is most important.

Welp that's mid December. So he should be back before that game. And because I'm more optimistic than you I believe he will be

I was just going by the KU, UNC, Gonzaga stretch.

KU and UNC is on the 1st and 5th. Would love to have him back by then but that doesn’t seem like it fits the timeline.

Just curious, what kind of very minor procedure could it have been? Something non invasive ?

Hurley said he did not tear anything. If there was swelling because of the on court incident they could drain the fluid from the knee. Hurley said it looked better already today. So my guess is they drained fluid from his knee with a needle. Now fingers crossed the swelling does not return and he can start pt and be back as quickly as possible. This is all a guess. There are others on the board who do seem pretty connected. So they may know more specifics. But this was the most clarity offered all day from Hurley.
