Whew
Could’ve been way worse. Could’ve used him against the Spurs but as long as he’s not our for an extended period of time we’ll be ok
This would be the ideal outcome. 🤞
I thought I heard Ime say high ankle sprain.
Yooooo. That is incredible News. That looked so much worse, im glad, it’s not the knees.
Man we deserve this after the Texans loss.
Stop with the two bigs play normal line up. Adam should be X factor should be 15 min a game or something, instead of running around chasing guards 30 min a game
so same as alpi’s injury
Thank god! 🙏🏻
Let’s gooo Aquaman is INVINCIBLE
This does not mean we’re out of the woods but not bad. He definitely did not say it was an ankle sprain.
“Nothing broken, and uh y’know NOT a high ankle sprain” and something about swelling. Still super worried honestly.
Need to get to a position to just rest him for the last 15 games of the season, he’s vital to any playoffs push
Woah thank goodness.
Thank god man. No injury is a good injury, but this is the best news we could’ve hoped for given how much pain he appeared to be in
Very good. Probably will only miss a month
Go ahead and take a couple months off, big dawg. Just to be sure.
I’ve never been so happy about a sprained ankle!
I mean that sounds terrible, but looking to the post season, hooray-ish.
I was already spiraling after the Texans lost, thank God for that
Does that mean Achilles or ACL/knee ligaments are ruled out? Could they know this soon?
Can CJ Stroud get offensive boards since he may not cut it as a QB?
Thank god
Man the Texans. Go Rockets! 🚀
Dodged a bullet there
That’s good news. Probably will be back around all star break
That’s even not a bad News.. . thanks.
Rest him till week before playoffs and force us to develop an actual offense
How was that an ankle sprain? Looked like he was holding his knee.
I’m not here because I’m a Houston fan. I’m here because Adam’s is a staple center in the league. I’m very happy he’s going to be ok but that looked so nasty in real time. Steve is a stand-up dude, and easily the strongest big man in the league in my opinion. Glad on all accounts and I’m praying for y’all to keep busting up the west. Great game tonight way to handle the pels.
