[ESPN Cleveland] “He has a pretty severe case of tendonitis from what I understand and the PRP didn’t accomplish what it needed to,” – @WindhorstESPN gives a FULL update on Donovan Mitchell’s knee injury.


That’d be season wouldn’t it? Usually surgery for tendonitis that bad

  1. Great. Chronic knee problems on a guy we need to decide to either give a SuperMax to or try to trade for as much as we can get in return.

  2. He basically hard carried us for a full month offensively, feel like we need to just rest him as long as we can now.

  3. About six minutes in, he mentions it’s not a surgery thing, just nasty tendinitis.

    My take is he needs to be shut down for 10 days or so.

  4. I dunno, Windy doesn’t have a MD, so “pretty severe case” could mean literally anything.

    Edit: Did you watch the video you posted? Windy literally said he doesn’t need surgery.

  5. Don was having such a fantastic season. Maybe the broken nose winds up being a blessing in disguise to force him to rest a little longer.

  6. I tried to push through my tendonitis when I was younger. Would have taken a few months off if I had the option.

  7. Needs exosomes and PRF but that would never be cleared by the Cleveland clinic but that’s exactly what he needs

  8. Only way to treat that is a lot of rest. Unfortunately this is gonna probably linger into the off-season so sounds like he won’t be 100% for any run we happen to make even if he started resting now. Can’t catch any breaks lately.
