Injury

It has been a rough five months for Michael Kidd-Gilchrist. The former number two pick in the 2012 NBA Draft tore his labrum in the preseason and went from a guy expected to breakout with a larger role to someone who may miss the entire season. He recovered quickly and returned on January 29, averaging [...]

Yes you read that headline correctly, apparently Blake Griffin’s recent hand injury, the one keeping him out of the Clippers current road trip, is a result of punching a member of the Clippers equipment staff after an argument. According to ESPN Reporter Michael Eaves,”…Griffin and the equipment staffer got into an argument in a restaurant [...]

Joakim Noah injured his shoulder and looked to be in a lot of pain during Monday’s 105-102 loss to Brooklyn. The injury took place in the third quarter of the game while Noah was guarding Andrea Bargnani. Joakim Noah just injured his shoulder, and left the court. Hope his reaction is not a sign as [...]

All of those years in the NBA have apparently caught up to Jason Kidd. The 42 year-old Bucks head coach is being forced to take a leave of absence from the team in order to undergo hip surgery. This comes at a bad time for the Bucks as they are underachieving with an 11-18 record [...]

Quietly, Carlos Boozer is still a free agent, looking for work. Once a premier big man, Booz’s time with the Lakers last year hurt his stock some. It showed just how bad he is on defense and frankly, just how old he has gotten. But you always had the feeling that a team would come [...]

Not that long ago, news broke regarding him shooting for the first time since his January shoulder shoulder. And now, he has been medically cleared to resume all basketball activities. This may very well be [...]

There was high expectations for Derrick Rose since coming into the league, and before his 2012 ACL injury he seemed to be exceeding them. A player who’s stock was only rising, it wouldn’t be a stretch of the imagination to call D Rose being an All-Star if healthy this season. That being said, take a [...]

The Lakers lost yesterday to the Spurs, but the story became Kobe’s tweets and Mike D’Antoni calling him a fan for it. But if we are to get back to the court for a second, the Lakers need to be concerned with Steve Nash. Nash has had to deal with injuries this year and they [...]
