    This deserves it's own thread... unfortunately.

    Trail Blazers PR ‏@TrailBlazersPR 2m X-ray's confirm Portland G CJ McCollum sustained a fractured 5th metatarsal bone in his left foot at practice on Saturday at the PF.


    Trail Blazers PR ‏@TrailBlazersPR 1m
    A date for surgery has not been determined. Prognosis for his return will be made post surgery.

    :sigh:

    I tried to make your post into a new thread, but I couldn't figure out how to do it.

    I've split a post into a thread before, but I couldn't for the life of me remember how.

    Is it a different bone in his foot from last time?

    Same bone? My guess is some sort of metal screws and plate and he's done for the season.

    On the one hand: this is really shitty.
    On the other: this is one position where we have depth. He probably wasn't going to get that many minutes to begin with anyway.

    Yeah, the fact that it's the same bone has to be concerning.

    Here's a thought - just a thought. Maybe we shouldn't keep drafting players who've had their college careers seriously impacted with injury?

    TUALATIN – The Portland Trail Blazers announced that rookie guard CJ McCollum will require surgery after fracturing the fifth metatarsal bone in his left foot.
    The injury occurred during Saturday's practice when McCollum was attempting to set a screen at the practice facility. A prognosis for his return will be made after surgery.
    This is the same left foot that McCollum broke during his senior season at Lehigh University that caused him to miss the rest of that year.
    McCollum, 22, was taken No. 10 in the 2013 NBA Draft by the Trail Blazers. From all accounts, he was having a sensational training camp after strong showings in involuntary workouts.
    He was expected to compete with Wesley Matthews for two-guard minutes. This definitely comes as a huge blow for the Trail Blazers.

    Eh, who would you have drafted instead? Not a great draft.
