    Fuck.

    This looks as bad as Livingston's injury. Looks like a clean break. Hopefully there won't be any ligament damage.

    As a point of reference Paul George was out for 8 months with a similar injury. Get well big guy, we’re all praying for you.

    Thoughts and prayers seemed overplayed.

    He landed on Dudley's foot and Nurk's tibia shattered almost instantly.

    Wouldn’t be surprised if he missed the beginning of next season as well.

    Time to develop Collins. Forget Kanter.

    Season over.

    Hope his recovery goes well but I'd plan for him being out all next year. Calls into question his career. Feel so bad for Nurk.

    Now see what we can trade Meyers and Turner expiring for in the summer.

    Similar to the Wes injury; it may be the end of an era.

    Geez I have watched four games this year, and this happened to be one of them. Tough thing to watch, there goes the season right there.

    Yeah, it had to be both bones in his lower leg. No knee damage though.

    I mena he isnt going to be back for the playoffs this year so the hope is does he even return next year and if so what when and what does he look like? Is he kind of how like Hayward looks or like Paul George who bounced back well.

    If he can't play next year, is there a 'Medical Exception' that they can use to sign a big since they have no real cap room to do so?

    Hope it’s only a break and heals properly.
