Once you have a stress fractilure you have a 60% chance of having another. To add to the fact that he's a professional athlete where his body gets abused daily it is a serious issue.

Do you know the cause of Jrue's stress fracture? Was it due to a pathological reason, or due to overuse (or change in activity levels)? Without the answers to those questions you have no idea of the probability of recurrence in his injury.

So I guess Golden State shouldn't have signed KD. Maybe that's what actually has been keeping QPon out and not his knee. AD had a stress fracture his rookie season too, I really don't remember that, maybe they just called it a foot injury.

These fractures are incomplete fractures and not always debilitating; remember when Anthony Davis (former UK basketball star and rookie for the New Orleans Hornets) suffered from one in his foot earlier this year? He took proper precautions and rested his foot in the hopes that it would heal up with no further incident. He made the right decision.
If Jrue was a lumbering big I'd be worried, it's a death sentence for those guys. If he has any restrictions next year I'd be worried, but people also heal and return from these injuries too.

not exactly true, but it is a fact that according to a few studies 60% of athletes who put their tib/fib through a lot of impact (running, track, basketball, etc) and had a diagnosed stress fracture showed that they had one in the past.
1 year recurrence rates in those athletes were 12.6% as well. After that, there's not much good data otherwise.
