What's wrong with Damon Jones?

[WildThing]

Saw him being taken to the locker room in the 1st half..

 

[Ron Mexic]

He was doing that leg kick thing and got too out of control with it. They think he ripped his groin.

 

[Troy Wingate]

uh oh. If that's the case, he'll be out for a while.

 

[PIP]

He rolled his ankle and sprained it. Didn't look too severe.. He was able to pressure on it. Might miss a game or 2, but could be back thursday against Indy

 

[KI4MVP]

he's listed as questionable for thursday

He was only down for about 30 seconds. It might not be that bad, but right before it happened I was noticing how bad his lateral movement is already. His defense was looking almost Ollie-esque.

I'm not too worried though, they got him in the locker room pretty quick. Max Benton was probably massaging it within 2-3 minutes of it happening. Benton has the fingers of God, from what I have heard.

 

[Kypus]

Wow did it *really* happen on the scissor-kick thing? I missed it, looked over and he was laying on the ground.

 

[Kypus]

NM, found it. Happened on defense, not the scissor kick.

In the first half, the Cavaliers lost one of their best outside shooters when point guard Damon Jones sprained his left ankle after banging knees with Davis.

Jones was moving to his left while playing defense against Davis and rolled his ankle when the two got locked up. Jones did not return and is questionable for Thursday's game at Indiana.

had nothing to do wit his leg kick, he was inside and was fighting for a rebound and his ankle just flopped over to the other side it happens to me in football sometimes its not a real big deal, he might miss a game or 2 unless he did something more.

Damon Jones was wearing shoes that looked like this after the game on Tuesday.

Now sprained ankles are serious and you don't want to rush back from them. But considering Damon was able to walk out with these on and the fact that he's proud he hasn't missed a game with injury in eight years, I think there's a chance he could play. Most importantly, it doesn't appear he'll miss a great deal of time.

It wasn't that bad at all. They were just being cautious and they felt the game was in control. I haven't heard how it felt when he woke up.

 

[Coyote]

I have boots just like those. My ankle bends like a mutha in them, so his sprain can't be that bad.

Oh SNAP! Karma is funnay!
