I think there's a very solid chance he's out for the season. Do not underestimate how detrimental even a week or two off can be for his body / diet. It's the same thing all over again. Missed reps, multiple time spent off, then he'll have to go through a "minutes restriction" on his return, his confidence killed, won't be gelling with players. What a disaster

You guys are acting like what he isn't saying is unreasonable. Any of you who have been here for the whole Zion era should understand the worries.

It just so happens we play two abysmal Eastern Conference teams in a row so they’re being extra cautious.

Hell we don’t play a >.500 West team until the 23rd (Houston)

I'll bet you $5k and give you 3:1 odds that Zion plays again this season.


That's an easy bet for you or the OP to jump on if you actually believe there's a "very solid chance" Zion is out the rest of the season.

Considering he finished the game he got hurt in, yes, saying he's out for the season is unreasonable

I have been here for the entire Zion era as a season ticket holder, but this is quite the overreaction.

I bet these are "rest" games, but they aren't calling them that.

He got hurt, no clue why people don't believe it when we actually saw him get hurt.

Also, keeping him out 1-3 games is completely in line with just about every other NBA player for this injury.


Further, if I told any Pels fan before the season started that Zion would play 24 games before his first injury, then it would be a minor injury that would keep him out likely 1-3 games, would you take that? Every last Pels fan would sign up for that immediately.

Now that is happening, and some Pels fans think the sky is falling, when they would have taken this exact scenario happily before the season started.

No legitimate fans think the sky is falling, just loser trolls (Honest Man) who have nothing better to do than say negative crap about the team they claim to be a fan of.

That's fair

I think your rest assessment is off base but then I went on a tangent in my reply based on the OP lol

I just don't actually remember him twisting his ankle. He finished the game and has had full practices, apparently.

Just an odd injury assignment to me.

Let me preface this by saying the OP is laughable and dumb... but... Eric Gordon not only finished the one game he played in during the 2011-12 season, he even hit the game winning shot.

Y’all are ridiculous. Almost 5 years of evidence would support Zion being out for an wildly extended period of time or the season right now. But y’all cracking up and downvoting this man. Multiple times a “lil injury” has spread to months and months but I’m sure this time is different ??????

Just to be clear I think he’s back in a week, it didn’t look that bad but if it’s longer it certainly wouldn’t suprise me and would make this man correct
