You know he is going to be out more then 1 more week. I don’t know why the Lakers don’t say he’s going to be out indefinitely like other team do. Why keep stringing it along? Say 10 to 12 weeks at the beginning, if that is what the injury timeframe should be.
Was Embiid a wasted pick? He wasn't available at all for a couple of years. Lonzo's going to be fine.
While I agree with the sentiment, if Philly had 34yr old LBJ and weren't in full blown "process" mode, would they have been as fine with the time he missed?
If he will be re-evaluated in one week it means he will miss AT LEAST 2+ more weeks. Because he isn't even working out yet... then comes no contact drills, one on one....3 on 3...5 on 5...then 5 on 5 for a while before playes. There is no way he comes back within a couple of weeks.
