I think he will be back well before all star break. Possibly 15 games in. Hell. He might be our starter for game one!!!
I don't understand how this guy got the reputation of being "lazy" or problematic. Team: Can you lose a lot of weight and get into better shape for your first full season with us. Nurk: No problem. Team: We know it's only been 3 months since your injury, but do you think you might be rea... Nurk: No problem.
Because he doesn't want to let down Dame, CJ, and Stotts. He's been empowered by these guys whereas in Denver Malone and the other vets didn't give Nurk the same kind of respect.
Well he must be one tough mutherfucker! I've read that the main obstacle to recovery from that injury is pain tolerance. My understanding is the more pressure placed on the bone break area the faster it heals in this location.
Dude has a work ethic. Who knows he may come back in even better shape than 2018 after he dropped ~20lbs.?? He stays healthy and he has a real chance for 20 pt-10 rb average plus a couple of blocks a game.
Hope he doesn't drop too much weight. I didn't think the 30lbs he dropped two years ago was good for his game. He became "finessey". This year he had the weight back around 285 and was the dominating Bosnian Beast again! Come back better than ever big fella.
