Cassius Stanley Left Leg Injury Vigil

[Saratoga2]

That's kind of a bummer too.

You may be optimistic in thinking he can come back just after Christmas. It's possible if it waswn't severe but hearing it pop sounds more like the severe kind and that can last 6 weeks. The coaches and medical staff need to be careful and let it fully heal, as I am sure they will.

Has there been any report on the severity of Jones Jr.’s ankle injury? When I google for injury updates from the game all I get is Stanley’s hamstring. (Sucks to be a low level D-1 team when your best player gets carried off the court and all anybody talks about is the player from the other team who limped away 20 minutes earlier.)

I have seen nothing on his Twitter feed or on the Winthrop_MBB feed. My hope is that it wasn't serious. And agreed it's frustrating to not know.

Watching him be carried off the court was a few different kinds of uncomfortable.

"Hearin it pop" makes it sound like origin or insertion. Either can be really bad and long time in rehab.

Is there any chance we ever learn what the injury is and how long he's expected to be out? Or is it back to Kyrie Secret Service mode?

The fact that he has said nothing about it in his Twitter feed (and he's been pretty active since the game) leads me to believe he's OK. But I'd still like to see confirmation.

Winthrop doesn't play again until Saturday, so I guess we'll know by then worst case.

The injury info will be provided on a “need to know” basis. My guess is none of us need to know.

Sort of like Duke/Coach K and injuries to our own players. By the way, any news on Stanley? GoDuke!

MSU and opponents need to game plan for him, simple as that.

Stanley's injury may be less severe than first thought as he seems to be on the floor for the walk through at Michigan State,

Back in the Disco Era that could be caused by a dance move or an STD.

“You must spread some Comments around before commenting on dudog84 again.”

I got moves like Jagger — but I wanna dance like Uma Thurman.

Thats how long my sons took .6 weeks before he was behind the plate again.
Big thing is being healed .then you have to gain confidence it wont give out on you again .id expect it would be a week or two longer 7 or 8 weeks until hes 100 %.
Then again my doctorate in lazy boy medicine may not be quite up to par with the Duke medical team.

.6 weeks = 4.2 days? Preset quick healing.

And I'll pass on dancing with Jaramir Jagr
