That might have been an ACL tear and that’s so sad if true.
Reminded me of the way Nerlens went down

Cassius Stanley is a heck of a player! Dukies be damned! I hope he’s okay.
I like Stanley as a player and a competitor. He doesn't seem like the typical Duke a-hole.
Hope he comes back soon.

Hate it for the player no matter who they play for. But K is cashing in some karma points right now.
haven't seen what you are referring to as that Duke game is on a channel I don't get but they ain't making a final 4 without him . That we be like if we lost Maxey . Also Duke doesn't have near the quality depth we do so its worse.
I think he is their 2nd best player behind Carey. Unreal athleticism.
Hope that he makes a quick recovery. Hate to see any kid go down like that.

It's especially awful for a guy whose game is predicated on athleticism.
The good news is, Duke masterfully recruits 3 stars who come and stay and develop so they won't miss a beat and are completely prepared for an injury.

Hoping for the best. Seems like a good kid.
Duke needs as many of those as they can get...

An achilles would pop.
Just want to remind everyone here that no one, certainly not Duke fans, shed a tear when Poythress was hurt, or Noel, or WCS.
We can all feel bad for Stanley, the individual.. that sucks and I hope it has zero effect on his play going forward. But i wont pretend to be upset if he never plays another college game.
Maybe? I thought the only thing that really "pops" is the Achilles because its basically a tightly wound rubber band.
Ha, imagine me as a doctor. Yikes.
Then I'll imagine you prescribing me loratabs
He was holding the back of the knee area, or low hamstring region. Possibly a bad hamstring sprain. If it's knee related, then he's likely done. They said they are hoping for a return after Christmas.
It could. On a breakaway with no one around before I could shoot I felt like someone shot me in the back of the leg as I felt a pop like feeling and I wobbled and went down. It was a serve Hamstring pull/tear. It took about a month before it was right again.
That injury wasn't bad at all, and nothing compared to Nerlen Noel as the poster said. He just jumped and missed the layup and came down and slid out of bounds, and got up and tried to jog down the court.
It's a hamstring injury and he will be back after Christmas according to K

Um Duke was full strength when SFA beat them on their home court!
We aren’t very good right now and this loss (Stanely) will be painful. K has his work cut out for him. K just said in his presser that Duke is NOT a top 5 team and may not be a top 25 team (ouch). Nonetheless, I will be here to take the anticipated medicine.
Hope this isn’t true. I believe K said it was a muscle injury. Can’t stand duke but hate it when a kid gets injured.
Hamstring injuries take a long time to heal especially if it is torn or badly strained. Speaking from experience here
