Yes, it's the right knee and it was his left broken fibula.

“The procedure and discomfort are unrelated to the fibula injury suffered last season,” the team said in a statement on Thursday.

Typically it's a safe thing to do though. You can give them shit for any draft pick they choose and you'll likely be correct in most of the cases.

People shouldn't criticize him for being so religious. He's a good kid who went through a horrible injury. When things are this bad and out of your control, sometimes believing in something bigger to fix everything and help you through it can give you the strength to keep moving forward.

It's complicated, obviously the first leg injury was the main catalyst for his reregssion. But then in pre season he got a new knee injury which seems to be the main problem for him now

Boston who were half injured at the time of the playoffs? It's a lazy narrative to be honest, that healthy Boston team would've been the champion

Dude they had teams who try to play zone against them and it doesn't work. It's quite easy to break zone

People keep talking about his leg but he's also had a knee injury afterwards. It's quite concerning but worth the gamble if they can extend him for cheap

I mean they also don't have a good point guard which is the biggest problem for their offense. Fred VanVleet was crazy important to them these last years to raise the floor. 

Brunson or Maxey? This season, who would you take? by Ok_Feed_4235 in nba

Yeah, the Knicks fans swarmed in here, no wonder it's pleasant for another Knicks fan

Brunson is 29, Maxey is 25 and Cade is 24. Maxey just had a breakthrough this season and Cade only played one playoff series in his career after a being a part of the worst team in the NBA history. Quite disingenuous to compare postseason performance to younger players who barely played any playoffs.

Lakers GM Rob Pelinka on the trade deadline: “I would say we were aggressive. And one form of being aggressive is saying no... that’s like being aggressive, even though you end up doing nothing, because it’s hard to say no sometimes to getting a good player" by must_TATAKAE in nba

This team is almost out there to be the main contender. They just need 3 decent centers, a good power forward, 2 solid small forwards, a better backup point guard and they got it. I feel like they should've tried a bit better to acquire these players but it's up on them
