And it was his offhand? Shouldn't have any lingering affects. Could realistically only miss a game or two at the most.

@Jumpman this is the best news I’ve heard in a while!

It really is the best news this weekend. It was a rough one.

Jumpman, I suggest you contact Jake Weingarten, as he is Chasonballers official spokesman. He can get your request to ask Cole passed along.

is he any relation to weinstein? heh.

quick web search yielded this info from Harvard Medical... This is obviously painful for Josh, but good news for the team & Josh (and us) as far as recovery & return timeframe

A finger dislocation is a joint injury in which the finger bones move apart or sideways so the ends of the bones are no longer aligned normally. Finger dislocations usually happen when the finger is bent backward beyond its normal limit of motion.

You can return to your sport once your dislocated finger has been realigned, your doctor has confirmed that the injured joint is stable and no bone is fractured, and your finger tenderness and swelling have improved. For a few weeks, you will need to wear a padded finger splint or buddy tape, which is used to strap the injured finger to an uninjured finger nearby for support.

If you need surgery to repair your dislocated finger, it usually takes at least four to six weeks before you can return to your sport.

Initial report was out two months. Just got the update that it’s only a dislocation and out two weeks.

I've seen dislocations break the skin before. It's pretty nasty but the recovery is usually quicker than you expect when seeing the injury.

Timeframe has a lot to do with the individual and Josh is a gamer and he probably won't miss much at all. For that, we must consider ourselves lucky

Not to discount Jumpman bc he knows his stuff but Josh himself said 4 weeks today

Or maybe they say two weeks and then let him serve a two week suspension

Recovery and suspension will be served at the same time.

[Jumpman]

Thank the heavens!!!!!

Indeed!

I've had several dislocations on my fingers.It usually heals ok but unless a operation puts a rod in it can become a chronic thing.

Jumpman, you feel like they will Still be suspend for games? I see above people are saying weeks?

 

[RamblinRed]

FWIW, saw a report that Alston's injury is a sprained MCL. Likely out 2-4 weeks.

Yes, they will be.

Why does Josh need time to recover? He doesn't have an offhand anyways.

*sigh*

Is this a manifestation of my sig?

I just got to see the stats for the game.Boy,that was UUUGGGLLLYY! Our Guards not only didn't score but got TORCHED for 30 by a guy (listed as guard--size?) who only had one 3 pter!.Didn't really expect much from bigs but that is what we got--almost nothing esp from Cole who supposedly has some Off skills.
It may not mean much but it shows how far these new guys have got to go to be a positive factor. Not good by any stretch.
