Sounds like he hopefully escaped a major injury. Not a good night for Nike.

Sounds like he narrowly escaped a serious injury again, but will miss a few weeks -- probably the first seven or eight games of the regular season. Do y'all think that with his weight and style of play he'll always be at risk of serious knee, ankle and foot problems?

I hope not... New Orleans looks like they could be a lot of fun this year. I'm rooting for them.

Surgery and out 6 to 8 weeks. That sounds pretty serious to me. Damn. I hope this kid is able to return from this and have a healthy career, but I'm worried at this point about his ability to do that.

I hope he is not the David Dahl of basketball.
