A re-aggravation?

1) He was reevaluated today but they aren’t “announcing” anything until tomorrow.

2) he’s not on a the bench tonight

3) Willie said he wouldn’t play before the break despite recent optimism that he would.

Nahh, even if it was a re-aggrevation he would still be on the bench, he’s been there since he injured it.

Zion tells media he wants to play in allstar game

Team tells Zion "no frickin way"

Zion misses home game to sit at home and pout

Had the same thought .

Don’t understand his absence from a home game .

Formal updates from the Pels aren’t typically positive .

Should we expect anything with Zion at this point. I mean we all have no clue. Every injury turns into a massive deal with little to no updates. He's not reliable.

Its simply amazing we can’t have our two best players at 100% at the same time

Yes... 1 should come out since they actually have practice scheduled for tomorrow

If today had been a practice day I imagine an update would've come today

I think the question is how hysterically will you take the news if it is bad?

Not hysterically at all? Unless you mean kinda laugh about it.

You didn't handle the Ingram situation very well; though I get the obvious frustration.

I just wish the FO would give the fans a clear line of sight. It’s frustrating. If Z doesn’t play until after the ASG, so be it, but his arse better not be suiting up for the West if so.

At the same time, from their perspective, the last time they gave a clear timeline the fanbase went off the deep end when Zion had a setback.

Part of their rationale has to be protecting their players too.

I want Zion in the all star game, and I think being an all star game starter is huge for Zion personally and career wise, but this is the 1 situation where the medical team being cautious is the right call. We should go at least 2-1 before the break, even without Zion. With him not sure it makes so much more overwhelmingly positive that we go 3-0. Why risk him coming back a week early when he could have 2 extra weeks off.

I'm with you. I really think they did a disservice to BI by not giving more information.

Absolutely they did.
By doing this, rumors get spread, instead of just being honest.
