re: Jrue will return tonight but will be on a limit

Not sure how much him playing 15 minutes a game this last 4 will have that much of an effect on the offseason though

The minutes themselves directly... Not much.

However, going into the offseason having game minutes under your belt following a stress injury in particular is very important, potentially. Stress injuries come from and are aggravates by repetitive stresses... like game minutes, training, etc. Being able to validate that you are ok for game minutes on some level could very well help to ensure that Jrue is ready in all ways, cardio included, for training camp at least and maybe even to add something to his game.

It is about the nature of his injury more than the minutes in themselves.
