AOC's injury must have been a little worse than Duke had let on earlier. Duke announced today (https://www.newsobserver.com/sports/article217285455.html) that he has had surgery. The date of the surgery is not given. Still, he's expected back for the start of practice in late September.

1. Official vigil time?

2. Let me be the first: It's over.

Best of luck to him. There *might* be some good facial/plastic/eye surgeons at Duke. ;)

Lots of chances now for obfuscation.

Wow, I did not see that one coming. I hope he keeps his eye on the prize. He’ll be a dead-eye shooter. Just needs to stay focused, and remember that Coach K has helped many other pupils.

We need to put a lid on this.

Enough with the supercilious posts. It is tearing me up to read these.

Only if AOC, Drs, and K all see eye to eye.
Sorry. Had to do it.

May I suggest 50 lashes for the next person posting a pun?


I hope his recovery goes quickly, smoothly, and completely.

The optics of a pun on an injury thread are not eyedeal. I envision some pushback from the DBR community...

My wish and prayer for a complete and quick healing and recovery go to Alex.

We have no strabismus turning this into a punfest.

I'd be dilated for a complete recovery.

Look guys, let’s not get too carried away with all the puns now. The focus is AOC.

I agree with you about keeping focus on an injured/healing player - and I am a usual punner.

I suspect you missed his pun. But that's just my perspective.

ummm.....why does the front page story about AOC's injury have a pic of Luke Kennard?

Because Luke says don't shoot until you see the whites of their eyes.

Because the Patti LaBelle photo had already been used?

This injury leaves the battle for rotation spots wide open.

I suspect AOL is done.

They must have been blinded by the tragedy and couldn’t focus on the right player.

He won’t be able to Netscape from that error.

This came from an unvarified instagram account... He appears to be in good spirits and focused on basketball.

Couldn't spork.

AOL is not done. It’s still my primary personal email address. Since 1995 :cool:
