Why are we talking about Lonzo Ball in here? I thought this was the "credentials" thread.

Hi. My name is George. I'm unemployed and I live with my parents.

They say 4-6 weeks for Lonzo but I think it will be longer than that. We have to see how he comes back after this injury. Its been slow progress for him and sadly when he comes back he might regress back to the start. We’ll have to be patient and not expect much out of the youngin until he’s been on the court for a month or two.

Based on this, I will be amazed if he plays again this year.

Man, when I rewatch it, I swear I have seen worse looking ankle injuries. I mean, Brandon's looked WAY worse than what Ball sustained.

Kinda makes me think he has glass ankles. To have a grade 3 sprain after simply planting your foot seems pretty extreme to me. I’ve had a grade 3 sprain but it was from landing awkward as hell on someones foot after trying to dunk in traffic

I wouldn’t try and decipher his durability from how he sprained it. My worst sprain(of MANY) was a bad grade 2 and it happened during a retreat dribble where I wasn’t even moving with any explosion. I’ve landed on feet etc and never had one as bad. Ankles are weird. The worrisome thing is that this isn’t the first time, far from it. Curry’s ankle issues are allowing me to remain optimistic though.

You’re right tho ankles can be weird. Sometimes the real bad looking ones don’t turn out too bad.
I just get nervous remembering watching Curry earlier in his career, dude couldn’t walk up the court without rolling his ankle 😂

Yea I think Lonzo has some more natural growth to do that will strengthen his ankles and other limbs/joints. Add that to additional ankle strengthening workouts/rehab etc and hopefully he can outgrow this issue.

A couple of times my ankle turned into the size of a grapefruit. One of those times I recall hearing every possible ligament in my ankle tearing. I didnt have it diagnosed, and I was trying to play basketball within about a month, knowing that I shouldn't. I had puffiness in my leg as a result of the injury. Also, my ankle was tender and vulnerable when moving laterally. I couldn't resist taking chances. I was in my twenties and it was over two months before I was right again.

I had the exact same injury, on the same foot going the same direction. I wasn’t playing ball tho, was drunk walking around the snowy streets of Chicago and slipped on some black ice off a curb.

It was the most painful injury I’d ever have. It was very painful and swollen for 2 weeks. . The next two weeks were moderately painful and it was tender to the touch. It felt better after 4 weeks, but still hurt moderately on and off for 6 months and would often get stiff and have some small shooting pains.

My guess would be that by the time he’s ready to come back in 6 weeks we will be out of the playoff picture and he won’t play the rest of the season.

Did you have a treatment & rehab routine for it or just let things happen as they happened?

Isn't the left foot that a righty typically jumps off? I suspect that he may favor that foot and limit his "aggressiveness" as a result, at least until it has fully healed.

What that does to his game in the short term remains to be seen.

Got a walking boot and had doctor visits bi weekly and had a stretching regimen after week 2. I mean it was Kaiser Permanente lol, I’m sure Lonzo has better doctors and is in better shape than I was. Still, for it to be 100% I can’t imagine it’d be sooner than 3 months regardless of the treatment.

It is the correct side to boost off of when you are taking off on one foot.
Whereas Lonzo mixes it up with a one foot or a two foot takeoff.

3rd degree ankle sprains are the worst. I predict 2 months.

For a grade 1 type of minor injury it really does work like a charm

Also had this injury but I was playing football in high school and got crunched by this dude twice my size during an "Oklahoma" drill . Initially they told me 6 weeks - which meant I might've been able to play in our last game that season. I could barely walk on it after 8 weeks. I would be pleasantly surprised if he plays again this year.

I had a grade 3 sprain on my right foot once, playing basketball.

I was playing pickup at a park and I jumped between two guys for a layup. One of them accidentaly hit my waist with his shoulder and I fell over my ankle. I teared 3 ligaments and I have instability until this day (this was 2013).

It was really really really painful. I had to stay 4 weeks with immobilization and it took me almost 3 months to go back playing. Of course I didn't have the same kind of elite rehab Lonzo will have, but looking at my experience and other buddies with similar injuries, I'd say around 8 weeks sounds more realistic.
