I try to defend the players who get criticized all the time here (e.g., Okoro, Windler). But Jesus Christ, how the hell does an ankle sprain keep you out for THREE WEEKS?!?!?
 
I’m just curious if he ever plans on playing basketball again :chuckle:

I legitimately forget Windler is even still on the team sometimes. I mean even Rubio has more of a presence at the games and on the practice court, and he’s ostensibly gonna be out longer.
 
Crazy he is still hurt. Isn't 4 weeks the extended time period for a high ankle sprain?

This makes that response when they asked JB if Dylan would play in the final preseason game make sense. He laughed and was like "no"

Must be pretty bad.

I like his game. Such a weird thing he is so injured. He said he had never had an injury that kept him out of games before the NBA
 
KLove did not even mentioned him getting himback.


Last I read, he began doing non-contact stuff... Just weird, guy did not missed games hs and college, then became glass during rookie summer leauge...

High ankle sprains are a bitch. I’ve seen players take a few months to come back from those.

I think the bigger problem is they are trying to remove Windler's Vagina, but despite how hard the doctors try, Windler's vagina keeps coming back.

I was going to mention that, but everyone has there joke on him, I actually feel bad for the man, just having bad luck…..The kid was really excited about his progress, then this happened……I still think there something to salvage from him, just got to stay healthy, which so far has been impossible to do……

I actually think he has enough talent to play for someone (if healthy), but it won't happen in Cleveland. Windler needs to be included in a trade for his own sake. Wade and Levert have pretty much locked up the 3 spot. I don't see him playing in front of Okoro or Rubio (when he's back), so there aren't minutes at the 2. He might get "lucky" and get some time if we have a rash of injuries, but otherwise its going to be hard to get the one thing he needs most, which is playing time. Seriously, the best thing that could happen for his career is to get traded to someone like the Lakers who are desperate for a shooter.

I’m not at all convinced his talent is good enough to be a rotation player in the NBA. It’s hard to know because he’s lost so much time to injury but he’s physically unimposing, his shot is not a quick release, he’s never shown much ability with the ball in his hands and he gets overpowered by stronger wings (and most of them are stronger that he is).

He has some rebounding ability but nothing special.

I don’t see any way we keep him next season. Some team will likely take a flyer on him but he’s got a long way to go. If he can’t get on the court, though, talent won’t matter.

No source has ever said it was a high ankle sprain, one person here mentioned a high ankle sprain and it took off from there as him having one. In the news media there are zero mentions of Windler having a high ankle sprain. When the injury happened on 10/5 Cleveland.com mentions the ankle sprain and called it "minor". That certainly does not sound like a description of a high ankle sprain. People must be forgetting Windler's overall fitness, rumor has it he coughed once while in high school and broke a rib. I would expect a normal ankle sprain to sideline him until around New Years. My December prediction for his first 3 pointer may have been too optimistic.

So my question remains, is there any actual news beyond the windler fragility jokes. No one seems to actually know.
