Just watched the Trae Young injury. As Mo Gueye falls into Young, the impact places a valgus stress through Young’s knee. This mechanism of injury places strain on the inside aspect of the knee, particularly the medial collateral ligament (MCL). Interested to see what the MRI shows.
The total games lost is up by 40ish games through one week
Brandon Miller Injury Update: A shoulder subluxation is also known as a partial dislocation of the ball-and-socket joint of the shoulder. The average time lost for in-season shoulder subluxations that do not require surgery is ~21 days.

It's opening night of the NBA season and I have nearly 90 open injuries entering the regular season. Hoping for a healthy season and wishing all 30 NBA medical staffs best of luck this year.
One of the most well known cases of sciatica in the NBA is LeBron’s Mind the Game cohost Steve Nash. Nash’s sciatica was linked to multiple bulging discs in his back and spondylolisthesis.
Massive LeBron Injury Update: Sciatica occurs when the longest nerve in the body becomes impinged often due to a disc in the lower back or a muscle in the glute region. Addressing the root of the problem is key to recovery. Other cases of sciatica in the NBA are accompanied by considerable time lost
Scoot Henderson Injury News: Hearing the injury described as a tear and accompanied by a lengthy recovery window suggests a Grade 2+ or higher strain. Location of the reported tear (muscle belly Vs tendon) will influence recovery.
Catching up on the flurry of NBA injury news. Brandon Clarke is undergoing surgery for knee synovitis, a condition that occurs when a layer of soft tissue that acts as a cushion between spaces within the joint becomes inflamed. A synovectomy (removal) seems likely. Timeline TBD.
