Wes back on the court

you beat me to it, was just going to post that, support the RISK I http://www.cbssports.com/nba/fantas...095586/history-not-kind-for-ruptured-achilles about

somehow you skimmed over what you quoted me on about an athlete who suffered an achilles tear being back to former ability "within 2 years". Your fantasy hoops article talks about a dip in production the following year and sites all sorts of guys who suffered the injury at the finish line of their careers (& scrubs like Dickau), but doesn't touch the longterm prognosis for a younger athlete like Wes. It typically takes a year for the achilles to repair, but then the athlete isn't in nearly the sort of shape they once were and that doesn't come back overnight. Jonas Jerebko is putting up the best stats of his career now a couple years removed from his injury. 49ers TE Vernon Davis returned from his to be the fastest TE in the NFL and made All Pro for the 1st time. Dominique...

In all likelyhood, Wes will see a dip next season, but will be back to 100% the following year.
