Steph Castle G2G per Hurley

Amen to that. AK has been off for three games now too and it may be his injury in his non-shooting hand effecting his shot.

Now we're seeing what a blessing last year was injury wise.
JH had the games lost to a concussion and AJ lost a couple early games but this year is starting to make me feel like I'm watching the women's team..........

I have to wonder how much bench depth, or lack thereof contributes to injuries. We had great depth last year which allowed us to spread the minutes around. Guys were fresher and their bodies would take less of a beating at game pace.

Clingan both big toes?

And those are some BIG toes, not a minor injury with toes that large.

So you’re saying they’re not “courant”?

Pretty much….yes the irony in the name is funny. But I remember a time when the Courant beat writers were celebrities. They would always come into the bar my friends father owned and they would always draw a crowd.

“You’re gonna have stretches like this, he went through it last year and obviously he found his footing,” Hurley said. “He’s Alex, he’s probably the last guy on the roster I’m worried about right now.”

If Cam and DC could make any thing worse by playing I’d assume they wouldn’t have played VS KU or be playing tonight. I think it’s simply a pain threshold issue. DC didn’t look bad out there. I think we’ll be fine. We have AK PB after tonight where we can rest some guys and a week in between that game and the Gonzaga game. That week will be HUGE

SC got his "procedure" on the 13th or so of November. So three weeks of recuperation and rehab.

What is the guess on his use? 15 minutes? Or the BY special, 20 minutes?

 

[HooperScooper]

The game before, UNH, Spencer was 6-13 from the field, 3-7 from three and 2-2 on FTs. All fine.

So it's been a whole 1 game in a row he's been bad. 1 game isn't a trend.

But I agree that if the injury caused his poor shooting game and the injury is still bad then it may be a concern. We'll see tomorrow.

I guess we got our answer. He looked like he was hurting but still played very well.

Ball did what most expected Castle would do, and almost vice versa. Ball hopefully always had that in him and it's taken a few games
for him to relax enough to show it. Castle will bounce back.

It's wild to me that the people who say stuff like this are the same ones who are jumping off a building in the chat if they're down 4 points at the first media timeout.

Imagining this is true is why I don't do chat

I think everyone worried about Solo doesn’t fully understand that transition. Things need to slow down a bit for a kid, those first few games are whirlwinds no matter what the talent level. His talent level is high, he was going to figure it out.
