Massive LeBron Injury Update: Sciatica occurs when the longest nerve in the body becomes impinged often due to a disc in the lower back or a muscle in the glute region. Addressing the root of the problem is key to recovery. Other cases of sciatica in the NBA are accompanied by considerable time lost

Scoot Henderson Injury News: Hearing the injury described as a tear and accompanied by a lengthy recovery window suggests a Grade 2+ or higher strain. Location of the reported tear (muscle belly Vs tendon) will influence recovery.

Catching up on the flurry of NBA injury news. Brandon Clarke is undergoing surgery for knee synovitis, a condition that occurs when a layer of soft tissue that acts as a cushion between spaces within the joint becomes inflamed. A synovectomy (removal) seems likely. Timeline TBD.

If Haliburton did indeed tear his Achilles, that would be the 8th Achilles tear of the season. The previous high was 5 (14-15). The total doesn't include Thanasis Antetokounmpo who tore his in the offseason or prospect Jalon Moore who was injured in a recent pre-draft workout.

More NBA injury news: According to ESPN, Jaylen Brown played w/ a partial meniscus tear. Hard to pinpoint exactly when it occurred. 1st signs of a knee issue surfaced in Feb. when he missed time w/ knee swelling. He missed 12 total games moving forward w/ what was described as pain or impingement.

The latest update on Aaron Gordon is sadly a big one. A Grade 2 strain is often referred to as a partial or incomplete tear. Average time lost for G2 hamstring strains in the NBA is ~31 days (11.2 games). Gordon’s 2020 season also ended early following a strain of the same hammy.

Jayson Tatum becomes the sixth Achilles tear in the NBA since summer league and that doesn't include two-way guard Dru Smith. More here: instreetclothes.com/2025/05/13/u...

Steph is dealing with a Grade 1 strain. If he misses the average time lost, a return in Game 6 or Game 7 is plausible.

I have recorded 125 various injury entries for Steph Curry in his NBA career. This will be the first hamstring-related injury of note.

Severity of the strain will ultimately dictate how much time Steph Curry potentially misses. Average time lost for confirmed G1 strain is ~10 days. That jumps to ~31 days for G2 strains. Time lost for nondescript strains is ~12 days.

LeBron James injury news: Grade 2 sprains are also known as partial or incomplete tears. Surgery isn’t often warranted, especially if the meniscus is unaffected. Other players to suffer G2 MCL sprains include Kevin Durant, Marc Gasol, & SGA w/ the injury carrying in an average time lost of ~41 days.

Injury info on Damian Lillard: The average time lost for qualifying NBA players following an Achilles tear is ~10 months. Dame is 54 days older than Kobe was when he tore his Achilles. Bryant was back in action in 240 days (~7.9 months)

The integrity of the Achilles can be tested by a medical professional using a simple but highly accurate special test known as the Thompson test. MRIs are often needed just for confirmation. Hate this for Dame.

Injury update on Jimmy Butler: A glute contusion is an ideal outcome for the Warriors forward & one he is familiar with. Butler suffered a glute contusion during the 2023 playoffs & never missed a game. The average time lost for all other glute contusions is 5.2 days (~1.0 game).

Following the Tyrese Maxey injury update, 34 rostered players in the NBA have now been officially ruled out for the remainder of the season.

Following last night's games, the total games lost to injury or illness in the NBA surpassed the 6,000 mark for just the second time since the 2005-06 season. The only other time this has occurred was during the 2021-22 season that was ravaged by the Omicron variant of COVID-19.

Kyrie Medical Update: Good news in the update on Irving's knee surgery. Dr. Riley Williams (who has performed multiple ACL surgeries in the NBA as well as Kyrie's 2020 shoulder surgery) didn't find any damage to the meniscus or other structures. It will be an isolated ACL tear for Kai.

After Wemby's DVT in late February, Dame Lillard becomes the latest NBA player to be diagnosed with a blood clot, joining a list that includes Ausar Thompson, Tyreke Evans, Chris Bosh, and Brandon Ingram.
