Per Stotts.

Could be anywhere from 0 - 57 games depending on if you need surgery.

 

[Blazinaway]

Stotts just said "discolated", depends how severe but per Reddit avg NBA shoulder dislocation is 27 games missed

 

[B-Roy]

Zach said the shoulder popped back in cleanly. Hopefully he doesn't miss more than a month...

As I recall, after Meyers had his strong series against Memphis back in 2015, his fourth season--and by extension his entire Blazer career--was basically derailed by a separated shoulder.

I blame Meyers more for his derailed career than his shoulder

that blows
how long before Gasol is in the lineup?
who will start? Mario??

Mário starts

Guessing we'll see more Hood @ 4 minutes, and Baze also playing more.

Wouldn't mind seeing Mario and even Nas get some looks

Would anyone be shocked if Little becomes 5 minute starter like Noah Vonleh?
Stotts loves to maintain rotations.

That role is most likely going to Tolliver.

I’d start Hezonja and give more minutes to Skal.

Ive always blamed the firing of Kim Hughes, but Im sure its a lot of things.

 

[Dougnsalem]

I blame Slypokerdog.

Aren't separated and dislocated usually pretty different in terms of severity? Separated is typically worse from what I remember.

You're probably right. I'm just feeling cynical.

Yes. If its dislocated, the bone is just out of the socket and you can generally just pop it back in. If its seperated the ligaments are torn. That takes a good deal longer to heal. It's what Kanter had.

 

[SIeepwalker]

I hope he can come back quickly and 100%. He's a good player and we need him

For example:

A really bad seperated shoulder.....

Just a flesh wound

More Tolliver, Eh..

 

[DDolla]

It’s not wrap and no ice at all. Good news

Yes, unless something else get torn along with the dislocation.

They are totally different though. Dislocated is when the ball pops out. Separated is when the clavicle is pulled away from the scapula, with some amount of ligament damage.

More Tolliver, Eh..

Oh god no

 

[Eastoff]

More Tolliver, Eh..

Hopefully Mario with the starters and more skal

 

[Scalma]

Terry better not.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Anybody know what Kenneth Faried is doing these days? How quickly could Olshey get him to San Antonio?

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Both sounds painful...

Luis Scola is currently playing for the Shanghai Sharks, 3 years out of the NBA and 39. I have no idea how he looks now, but he can't be as bad as Tolliver.
