But I’m hopeful, as long he doesn’t have a Jaren Jackson Jr type meniscus injury (he was out for a long time)

Yea, reading up on that JJJ one makes me worry a bit more.

They were pretty vague it seems on the JJJ injury but never confirmed ACL was involved, and he still missed 9 months. But again, they were vague and never mentioned if he had setbacks or whatever, so who really knows but that's wayyyyy longer than you'd assume it should take.

It all depends on what type of surgical intervention they choose to proceed with. If it is a meniscectomy (take out the tear) then it will be a 4-8 week injury, unless you are being rehabbed by Aaron Nelson and your name is Zion. JJJ and Russell Westbrook both had meniscus repair surgery where they reattach the tear. This normally comes with an immobilization and non weight bearing period that lasts between 4-6 weeks. It is a much longer recovery.

I really don't want to hear that they are going to go non surgical for a month and waste a month before proceeding with surgery. I hope he has whatever he is going to have done tomorrow and he can begin the rehab.
