Nothing worse than injuries to key players right before the start of a season. Portland is finding that out now. And with the seriousness surrounding head injuries, it will be interesting to see what happens here.
Nicolas Batum is out with a concussion he sustained during practice, and there’s no current timetable for his return. However, the start of the season is far enough away where this hopefully shouldn’t be a concern.
LaMarcus Aldridge sustained a quad injury, Mo Williams sprained his ankle, Will Barton received a concussion, Dorell Wright dislocated his right middle finger, Earl Watson suffered a calf contusion and the worst one of them all, CJ McCollum broke his left foot.
It’s been hard times.
