Maxi Kleber tore his hamstring 2.5 months ago, got surgery, and he’s already returning. Meanwhile zion…
Honestly it’s getting to the point where we see this whole franchise is just caving in and I’m okay if Gayle sold the team. I’ll take the chance of a new owner keeping the pels here

Complete tears are actually better and faster healing than small tears.

He had a much different type of injury.

But imaging and the doctor consultation confirmed a diagnosis unprecedented for Smith and his staff.
Kleber had torn the semitendinosus hamstring muscle tendon that connects down to the fibula.
Most hamstring tears happen in the flesh of the muscle or from the bone where it attaches to the hip. In cases like that — such as Bucks All-Star Khris Middleton’s 2016 injury that kept him out six months when coach Jason Kidd worked in Milwaukee — surgery precedes a long immobilization period to ensure no disruption to the repair while healing.
Kleber’s surgery — a semitendinosus tenotomy — removed torn tissue to promote healing, so he didn’t risk reaggravating a reattachment.
”The tear was not in the muscle — it was in the tendon, where the tendon attached to the bone,” Smith said. “Now it still takes time for him to get to full comfort and full strength and that, but there’s not as much concern about re-injury.”

And Karl Anthony Towns suffered a “calf strain” in November and is still out. It varies.
Zion’s injury history is frustrating. Pels haven’t been very proactive in communicating on them either, but thought they were a little better this go round. Maybe he can make it back in time to make a difference. But the team’s performance in his absence has raised larger issues about our depth, our starters and our coaching. Unfair to ask Z to be a cure all. We need to be better than that…
