1. I hope he’s back to get a few games under his legs before the playoffs, even if we have a good idea of where we’re at.

   Not having him for those 3 Denver games is going to be pivotal

2. Looks like contendings back on the menu boys

3. I’m torn on KAT coming back so soon because I think we can make a far run with him but I’m not sure it’s worth risking his future health to do so. If that’s what KAT, the team and the people around him say is good then I can’t really argue w/ that.

4. I have suddenly become an expert in meniscus tears today.

   I wonder if Wolves will disclose what type of tear / surgery he’s having

5. Good news keeps on coming

6. We can all put our nooses away now

7. Great news! Ant and the boys showed they can hold down the fort until then

8. Sounds like a similar procedure to what Embiid got so normally 4-6 weeks but more so 6-8 weeks for 7 footers like Embiid and KAT
