I agree...and that suggests that the injury wasn't as bad as some would think...

Yeah. The fact that they reevaluated him earlier than expected tells me that he

It might be, but hopefully he is training and his softness will result in a strong push in the playoffs when it counts.

High ankle sprains can take forever to heal properly

It's not a high ankle sprain. And that's what is so puzzling about it. Usually a

Just making absolutely sure he's healthy for the playoffs? That's my guess.

Sure they can, but the NBA is a players run league
