When do we see Bouk back?

[87Xfer]

There have been all sorts of opinions on this, but when do you think we realistically see Bouk back on the floor? Or are you in the camp that thinks we've seen him in his last game as a husky?

I would guess either Xavier on the 13th of feb or the PC game on 16th. He will definitely be back.

February

I hate to say it, but I am thinking we've seen his last game as a Husky.

Good poll question...

We haven't gotten any clarity from Hurley so nobody really knows. He clearly told Jeff Goodman the day after the surgery that James will be back in 2-4 weeks but Hurley has been all over the map on what he's told the public since then.

Yep, it's killing me.

The rehab process is very important for these injuries to recover the strength in the elbow. Let that play out first... we’ll hear more of it early February.

Not sure why you would say that. There's no indication that this would be the case, and even if it's 6 weeks from the surgery, that puts him back late February (for those who haven't looked at the schedule, our last two regular season games are in March). The kid wants to play and it was sort of a flukey injury that shouldn't affect anything long term. He's a big time competitor and I guarantee you he will do everything he can to get back on the court ASAP and make a tourney run with his guys.

I hope I’m wrong. I’m 100% just speculating based on the tone of Hurley’s most recent quote.

Isn't four weeks next Tuesday?

Injured on January 5th. I'm pretty sure there are still 7 days in a week. So the 2nd of February - next Tuesday - is 4 weeks.

It's way, way past two weeks.

I believe around 4 weeks from surgery on 1/12 . So if we still don't have any clear indications around Xavier game on 2/13, then maybe Chief has some intel and 8893's prediction looks like it may be.

Just saw this: Bouk's back

I assumed he injured his back.

Absolutely appropriate response.

I hate that I'm feeling it in my gut and I hope I'm wrong, but I answered the OP honestly.

Don't see it happening. He'll be back.

(Still doomed.)

Four weeks from surgery would be Feb 9th. Looks like he a slow healer.

Well, I remember Hurley in an earlier quote saying 4 weeks or a little after that . The 2-4 weeks was just Goodman - don't remember Hurley saying 2 .

I personally expect Bouk to return in Feb. And the 1st person to post that Bouk will be returning to game play is going to get a ton of likes.

Injury /surgery 17 days ago?

 

[August_West]

cleared by whom?

 

[uchusky32]

Well, I really don't want to do this. But the word is in 20 minutes.

Man, I was just thinking what we really need is a fifth thread on this subject.

Bro you’re making yourself a real easy target for freezing cold takes... there’s 2-3 months of basketball left and we’re 1-3 weeks from seeing him back.
