Thanks for those links Calinks, very helpful.

gathering from context, likely:
1. a small tear
2. partial menisectimy (removing only the torn piece)
3. 4-8 week recovery timeline.

No. I appreciate your trying to spin it into good news, but it is very bad news.

I wouldn’t say good news. More like silver linings.

Wish he could make his crunch time free throws but that block at the end was pure will to win and one of the most athletic plays I have ever seen. My word.

Put the team on his back tonight. I know you're built like a tank man, but please stay healthy, we need you..

We need more from slo-mo and Conley, tonight they combined for 8 points on 14 shots.
Jaden 11-8-6 on 7 FGA with zero turnovers, a quietly very solid all around game from him tonight and several tough rebounds in traffic was really nice to see.
Sucks Morris aggravated his hammy. I expect him to miss some time.

Nice minutes from TJ Warren. He was turning into a really good player before the injuries derailed his career.
If he can add a little scoring, it will help a lot.

I thought we would run out of gas for sure after the Pacers finally woke up and erased that 17 point lead, but we had just enough to win.
Rudy owned their big men in the first half and that helped us build enough of a lead to win.

Agreed on Both counts. Ant has been dramatically better on FTs this year, but still needs to sink them in crunch time. That block was one of the best I have ever seen considering it was a game winning play.

Thinking about it some more it's the kind of play that can solidify his position as the leader of this team. His teammates will look up to him even more now.
It's the kind of play that legends are made from. Better if he had done it in the playoffs though.

I don’t have social media. Does anyone have anything about Ant’s condition? I am worried for his health.

Many NBA players have hit their head on the rim or backboard making a play. They seldom lead to any significant health problems. Odds are he will be fine. That's all i got for you at the moment.

I only got one tonight but its a good one.

Things said by the fans of the opposing team.

Anthony Edwards is better than any player the Pacers have had in their entire NBA history.
When luck shuts the door skill comes in through the window.

Reggie Miller was freaking amazing especially come playoff time. The playoffs were Miller time.

Repair or Replace, I am sure they are looking at it from the long term view. I just hope he is back for the playoffs. If he could come off the bench and score 15 a game, that would be great.

Yes and I'm afraid the news is rather shocking. It seems Ant is awesome. His awesomeness is so severe that it caused a collision. While there's no long term damage this time one has to wonder "what if it was the rafters"?

Ankle, hip, wrist, neck, head. I am worried about all five. That dude took a licking, and kept on ticking. I just hope he is alright afterwards.

If he didn't come down landing like a cat, I would worry. But he nailed the landing.

He told Marney he fell on his wrist and it hurts :(. That is not a cat like landing. Honestly Finch should consider resting him tomorrow and seeing if we can steal one without Ant or KAT.
