Jaylen Brown (Bruised Achilles Heal)

[ScoobyDoo]

Just read, per Woj, that Jaylen brown suffered a bruised Achilles Heal. Brown is seeming to get dinged up a lot for a guy fairly early in his career. Wrist, hamstring, Achilles heal, etc.

Any thoughts on concerns with the Achilles Heal and the longer term picture with brown's durability?

 

[hwangjini_1]

as long as his heel is okay i don't see any problem.   

[Rondo9]

I would be more worried if he tore his Achilles to be honest.

[JBcat]

Not too worried. Remember the concerns about Curry’s durability early in his career. Past injuries, as long as it’s not chronic, doesn’t mean he’ll continue to have them often going forward.

I too am starting to wonder about whether these are signs that Brown's body is beginning to fail him.  Obviously we won't know the answer to this for a couple of years but one thing I do know is that these are not good things.

I do wonder if Brown is one of those athletes that won't play if they're not close to or at 100%.

So you must have missed that Jaylen played through pain in his wrist through much of the last half of last season and came back from this hammy probably too early and was playing through pain for most of his last two games.

Yeah, seems more like the opposite.

Quick he is broke , trade him for Kemba Walker and 100 million five year deal.

Not being cautious about playing through some injuries (like a hamstring) could easily become his Achilles Heal.

Hm. Maybe we need to have another long hard look at our medical staff hey?

Don’t  feel too bad Kiorrik - I miss things all day long!

Enjoy a cup though - need the brain on full power for tonight.
