Welcome back Nikola Topić! The Thunder guard played 17 minutes off the bench Monday for OKC's G-League Affiliate. It was his first game back since undergoing surgery and chemo for testicular cancer. I hope he gets to make his NBA debut soon.

Very little if anything seems to have changed on the ground. ICE is still out there terrorizing neighborhoods and trying to disappear neighbors. None of us on the ground are buying this bullshit. We will keep organizing and fighting.

Steph Curry on watching the protests from his hotel window: "In negative 10-degree weather. It was beautiful to see that turnout. That speaks to how important people felt to have their voice heard. In those elements and whatever streets outside our hotel, they were out, and it was amazing to watch."

Understanding Paul George's Elbow UCL Sprain - In Street Clothes While COVID ravages the NBA sending players league wide into health and safety protocols, a notable injury unrelated to the virus has occurred. The Clippers announced Paul George will miss at least th...

For more details on the injury here's a previous breakdown I did when Paul George suffered his UCL injury.

instreetclothes.com/2021/12/25/u...

New Ja Morant Injury Update: Elbow UCL injuries are commonplace in baseball (think Tommy John) but not in the NBA. Average missed time lost for a mild to moderate UCL elbow sprain? ~11. 8 games (~22 days).

Giannis Injury News: Important to remember the soleus is part of the calf muscle complex. His eventual MRI will determine severity of the strain & the exact muscle/area involved & that will dictate time lost. He missed 8 games (24 days) earlier this year with a soleus strain.

The Rockets confirmed center Steven Adams is dealing with a Grade 3 ankle sprain, an injury marked by a complete tear of at least one of the ankle ligaments. The average time lost for G3 ankle sprains in the NBA is 62.9 days (~28 games).

Jimmy Butler (36) is the second oldest NBA player to tear his ACL since the start of the 2005-06 season. Chris Andersen tore his ACL during the 2016-17 season at age 38.

Miami has determined Tyler Herro's rib injury is a costochondral injury, involving the cartilage that attaches the bony ribs to the sternum (breastbone). Costochondral injuries are often very painful and limiting. The average time lost for these injuries in the NBA is ~13 days.

Understanding Jaylen Brown's Knee Debridement - In Street Clothes The trajectory of the current Boston Celtics changed May 12 when Jayson Tatum suffered a torn Achilles in a Game 4 loss to the Knicks. Less than a month later, Tatum is seemingly progressing smoothly ...

I previously discussed the injury when Boston’s Jaylen Brown suffered a partial meniscus tear last season. He played through the issue before undergoing surgery in the offseason. instreetclothes.com/2025/06/11/u...

BIG Domantas Sabonis Injury News: Treatment options for meniscus tears are dictated by location of the tear. For a true repair to be possible, the damage has to occur to a specific region of the disc. Otherwise a removal (meniscectomy) may be the only option.

Just watched the Trae Young injury. As Mo Gueye falls into Young, the impact places a valgus stress through Young’s knee. This mechanism of injury places strain on the inside aspect of the knee, particularly the medial collateral ligament (MCL). Interested to see what the MRI shows.

One of the most well known cases of sciatica in the NBA is LeBron’s Mind the Game cohost Steve Nash. Nash’s sciatica was linked to multiple bulging discs in his back and spondylolisthesis.

Massive LeBron Injury Update: Sciatica occurs when the longest nerve in the body becomes impinged often due to a disc in the lower back or a muscle in the glute region. Addressing the root of the problem is key to recovery. Other cases of sciatica in the NBA are accompanied by considerable time lost

Scoot Henderson Injury News: Hearing the injury described as a tear and accompanied by a lengthy recovery window suggests a Grade 2+ or higher strain. Location of the reported tear (muscle belly Vs tendon) will influence recovery.

Catching up on the flurry of NBA injury news. Brandon Clarke is undergoing surgery for knee synovitis, a condition that occurs when a layer of soft tissue that acts as a cushion between spaces within the joint becomes inflamed. A synovectomy (removal) seems likely. Timeline TBD.
