Hate to see it. I worry about his injury proneness a lot. Hope for a speedy recovery to come dunk on some fools.

Yeah that sucks.  Hope to see Zion play soon.

That sucks.  Hopefully not a sign of things to come.

Just crushing. Probably a good time to see if you can find good Ja Morant ROY odds.

I’m also worried that this is going to prove a harbinger for the rest of his career. Hope not.

Don’t think I haven’t looked at those odds, but the cost to fly to Vegas to place a bet makes it less worth it.

Also, Michael Porter Jr. is a trendy pick since he’s still eligible having missed all of last year.

Terrible news.  Really interested to see what this kid can do at the professional level when healthy.

Just proves HOW studity unhuman Lebron is.....that he has flown though the air , landed from dunks and crazy athletic plays with his size and mass ...all these years ....and barely a nick  .   

Body wise Lebron was born a human Secretariat. May never be another such perfectly made human body for 100 years

  • Sometimes there's no sane reason for optimism
Hopefully injuries won't be a problem for him in the future, but I am not too worried about a torn meniscus. I have had a few of these over the years. You can actually typically continue playing (whatever sport), but things really flare up that night and the next morning where you can't bend or unbend your knee. Never waited a full 6-8 weeks (more like 2) to get back to what I was doing, but I also don't play professional sports and they probably were never that serious. I imagine the arthroscopic surgery was more precautionary.

Zion should be fine in a few weeks and should wow us with his athleticism soon enough. Having an awkward thing like a meniscus tear isn't a cause for alarm - just an unfortunate circumstance that will delay his rookie season. Looking forward to his return.
