Tank is back???
get well Rivers!!!
Grabbed much further down than his knee for anything like that. A severe ankle sprain is most likely. I've had far less gruesome looking ankle rolls leave me totally unable to put weight on that foot. Couldn't ball for nearly two weeks. And I didn't even bother wrapping it or getting it looked at.
Let's hope it is an ankle instead of a knee.
@ESPNSteinLine
Official word on Hornets rookie Austin Rivers after unnatural landing in Dallas is sprained right ankle
Sprained right ankle!!!! good news
Very good news.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOO. {Mod edit-watch the language please} Game Over man Game Over Bro. My boy no. He was shooting 0-5 terrible.
phew only a sprain

Hopefully it isn't a high ankle sprain.
Never thought i be happy to see a sprain right ankle!!!
Glad to be wrong.
Think he'll play next week?
Yall are so quick with posting news
Not saying you're wrong about how the injury happened and all. But he wasn't grabbing his knee. Down for a month tops, me thinks.
But seriously, our guard situation is just torrid. Outside of Gordon, we got nothing. Vasquez can't guard anyone and is unfit to push the tempo which the new configuration of the team is best suited for. Roberts is going to be our Pargo. A streaky guy that gets hot at random times. Rivers is on the shelf and not sure if he needs to be sniping from the wing or attacking the basket.
Need some serviceability out there, Demps. You know the drill.
Dang. I didn't know Mayo was 2-10. I thought he was tearing it up out there.
Can Miller play the 2? :hihi:
Vasquez is coming alive.
Interesting counter move. Behind the back? Never seen that one from a player out of the baseline spin.
Miller can play.
Roberts going to see significant PT in re season if rivers is hurt for any time. A lot of people including myself were high on him last week. Time for him to show what he can do.
Wow what a silly foul in preseason to be called :hihi:
I get it now. Why rookies so often foul 3pt shooters. Because it's a step or two further away run than in college. Throws off the body's kinetics.
love darius shooting the threes like this!
Miller is just killing it tonight from behind the line.
Ok I think I love Miller.
Darius Miller should get more playinig time at the 3. His ability to hit open shots beyond the arc will be needed.
Well at least its to 10 now
He's 2-2. Let's see how much more he has in that 3pt tank tonite.
Vasquez has no gettup whatsoever. As nimble as a locomotive.
A few updates:
Rivers went down like he had been shot in the knee. He was squirming bad.
The first quarter had ended and the Hornets put up a total of.... 10 points
Ryan Anderson has looked good.
Vasquez has been horrible.
Darius Miller has looked like an all-star. (But he just missed a three as I typed this)
Roberts is not a PG. :idoh:
is aminu drunken?
Takes FOREVER to set up the "offense" and then we run it terribly. Davis should touch the ball every possession.
They get within 10 and can never get any closer.
Vasquez seems to have left his confidence back in the Olympic games.
WTF kind of offense is this???? Very depressing...
Vasquez looks horrible. He do not look like a PG right now. He's doing a bad job starting the offense and running the pick and roll. I know he could do better, I hope he can do better.
Too many silly turnovers.
