It's the same toe he fractured coming into the draft. Not something to rush back from, another good reason to tank this snake bitten season.

Didn't even remember that toe from the draft.

I think we have to officially classify Okongwu as oft-injured and go looking for a long term Center...

Onyeka Okongwu lack of size doesn't fit the direction the league is headed as a starting 5. He'll never be a me to guard Wemby or some of the big men that will be drafted.

This ain't a good sign...

I think we now know why OO's extension came in at such a low number. The team likely had serious injury concerns moving forward and Onyeka's was advised to take the guaranteed millions now rather than risking RFA.
