Clear broken ankle, nothing wrong with the rest of his leg, as i said it's not as bad as pg13 who came back in a year. I see him coming back by the playoffs.

The bone coming out of the leg like pg13 looks awful but shorter recovery time than acl. I have a feeling this will be an awful break plus achilles done.

Ya'll really in here arguing about how ****ed up the mans leg/ankle is?

His whole entire **** was all sideways and backwards and ****.

That man ain't coming back in no "4 to 6 weeks".

But, isn't this one of those cases where if nothing tore then its a bad strain but better than tearing ligaments and maybe 4-6 weeks?

What the hell are knee muscles?

I thought those injuries are 4-6 months tops, maybe 3-4 months?

I'm optimistic:

James, 32, does not know how much longer he'll be inspiring folks on the basketball court, but he hinted that sticking around the league long enough to potentially play against his oldest son, 13-year-old LeBron Jr., should he make it to the NBA, might be unrealistic.

"I know I won't be able to play at this level forever, but to be washed [up] and play ... I don't know if I can play washed," James said. "but I damn sure would love to stick around if my oldest son can have an opportunity to play against me. That'd be, that'd be the icing on the cake right there."

If that does happen, he already has a welcome gift planned for his son. "I'll foul the s--- out of him!" James said. "I'd give him all six fouls. I'd foul the s--- out of Bronny, man."

A clean break of a bone is not a big deal at all and is much better than basically any injury to a joint.

PG13 had a compound fracture, his bone was sticking out through the skin, that was way worse on the surface, of course different injuries on different people heal differently.

edit: someone said achilles maybe?
That would be worse

A compound fracture means the bone was sticking through the skin. It means he needs antibiotics but doesn't really matter beyond that.

Recovery is normally faster than an acl though. Gruesome looking though

I can't even watch the replay but y'all seem to be analyzing it in slow-mo and looking at stills and stuff.

Dr. David Chow (of Twitter repute), says: Hayward likely done for year. Likely fine for next year.

Don't worry it will soon become an over/under bet.

Remember when Celtics fans thought Marcus Smart could be a centerpiece of a trade for Jimmy Butler?

I can't even enjoy gloating about how overhyped the Celtics draft picks are anymore.

Cavs look waaaaay more in sync than I thought. SMIFF
