I'm sure this is a topic that everyone is going to be interested in for awhile, so we may as well have a thread on it. Any initial news? As far away as practice is, I am not real comcerned right now, but just hope it doesn't become one of those things a lot of players have, where it keeps coming back.

If he doesn't need any type of recovery, his thumb must be made out of steel. That looked nasty the way his thumb bent.

That was definitely an ouch moment. The injury bug is hitting our guys already. Is there a pesticide for this?

Uncanny how many top Duke recruits get injured! But, glad to here he is okay. Hopefully all the guys go through the season healthy and strong.

According to my unx “friends”, little and white are future top 50 nba all time. We are in trouble guys. Nassir Little is going to dominate us next year.

From the video, it looked like an IP (not MP) dislocation with a probable ulnar collateral ligament tear of the IP joint and possible joint capsule tear. This might heal with conservative management (splinting and rest) but will probably be weak in the future and prone to dislocation and arthritic damage. Hope he is left handed.
