Donnie Freeman out for the season. Achilles injury

[philstat]

His entire career has been marred by injuries.

5 in 5 changes that narrative

Aw ok good I haven't read up on that but I seen it posted

Somewhere ther

Bad luck? There’s no such thing. It has to be someones’s fault. We always blame it on the strength or head coach here. I wonder if they are blaming Pitino or the conditioning coach?

Or he's not really hurt lol

Shocking, this guy hasn’t been healthy enough to play a full season his entire college career.

Achilles injuries are often non-contact injuries and can be very difficult to come back from. Kevin Durrant and others have come back strong, but this is a sucky thing to happen to him.

He had an injury history. This is why I kept saying I wanted Ransik over Freeman. It sucks and I hate this happened to the kid but he’s struggled to be healthy and we were going to have to rely on him as a a core piece. Ultimately, it’s good we didn’t get Freeman. McBride will fill the role nicely — not as good of a player, but he can put it on the deck (not as proficient as Freeman in that regard), a much better shooter and probably a better locker room fit (based on reports of his personality.) Happy with who we ended up with.

Best of luck to Freeman and I hope he comes back healthy for St. John’s next year.

And a ton of dudes on here attacked Pope because he didn't throw a massive bag at this guy, who gets injured every time he gets out of bed.
I hate it for the kid, but anyone that paid big money for him, is a fool. I hate to say that about RP, but he seriously overpaid for an injury probe player and it just bit him in the ***.

Holy ****. We dodged a bullet

That is one Pope whiff that is awesome. He would have continued the massive injury streak we have had. Thank ya Jesus for this miss. He agreed on a deal here before he left too. Thank you agent McGreedy.

Hopefully Franck doesn't continue it. I bet Pitino was running his guys to death and Donnie overworked it.

Rob Wright: you're next son.

This Freeman news has to have Saul in the fetal position.

I'm a friend of SOS, we are usually on the same side, so I'm not going to say anything negative about him on this, but a lot of people were all over Pope for refusing to overpay for this guy. Pope learned his lesson, he overpaid for almost every player last year.

Condolences.

Grown adult doing this, btw.

All you do is cry and moan, and I'm the problem. Since you think I suck at recruiting I'll offer you a scholarship to be our fat waterboy, am I in your good graces now?

Maybe the banner boys sparked some different dark magic

Pope lucky he whiffed on him

Hate that for the young man. Hoping for a full recovery.
