NBA – The Clippers player had left his teammates last night, at the end of the game against the Thunder, after a clash with Luguentz Dort. He will be reassessed in two to three weeks, for a sprained knee.
Before being the hero of the Thunder by his defense on Kawhi Leonard on the last possession, Lu Dort had unfortunately signaled himself by a big contact on the rebound with Paul George.
It’s a tibia against tibia and the knee of the winger of the Clippers twisted at the reception. After staying on the ground for several minutes, he returned to the locker room with the help of his teammates. Until then, everything was smiling for him, even to the point that he had signed a 360° on half-court!
The reporters present on the spot saw Paul George leave the room on crutches and that was of course nothing reassuring, especially when we know his fragility. Finally, in the early evening, ESPN reported that the player The Angels had a sprained knee and would be re-evaluated in two to three weeks. In the best case, he will only return at the time of the playoffs, or the play-in…
“I hadn’t seen anything, and it was Dahntay (Jones) who showed me the action” answered in any case his coach, Tyronn Lue, in a press conference. “I don’t know any more, he will be examined. I didn’t see him afterwards. »
Same story with Kawhi Leonard: “I didn’t talk to him…I didn’t see the action, and I thought at the time he was shot in the face. » And when a journalist asks him how the team sees the future, he replies: “It’s up to the next player to show up… We’ll see. »
The problem is that usually the “next player” is called Norman Powell, but he has been in the infirmary for several weeks. Nine games from the end of the regular season, this possible double absence could be very expensive, while the gap between the Clippers (5th, 38 wins – 35 losses) and their pursuers (Warriors, Thunder, Mavericks, etc.) is reduced. .
