Pau sprains ankle
thought it needed its own thread.
still no details, but he wasn't able to put any weight on it, which is obviously not good. x-rays pending.
unbelievable...

Re: Pau sprains ankle
No Pau for the rest of the game the announcers said. My question is will there be Pau for the Rockets ?

That's a good question. The way that the Rockets are playing, I sure hope that he can suit up.
But what is going on here? Do players' ankles turn into paper mache once they sign a contract with the Lakers?

Re: Pau sprains ankle

Re: Pau sprains ankle
Well I hope the x-rays being negative part is as good as other stuff that comes out negative and you're relieved. This blows beyond description.

Just hope Pau wont be out for the season. But we really need Pau for this road trip.

It's a good sign in terms of bone fractures.
X-rays show mild, if any amounts of tissue damage.
Thats why he will probably get an MRI in the next few days to rule out any tissue tearing.

I think you mean ligament damage. That is, after all, what a sprain is.
I didn't see how he rolled it, but it was most likely an inversion sprain which puts 3 ligaments at risk. there's three grades of sprains, but there's no use speculating. we'll see tommorrow.

Bone, ligament, etc are technically all forms of connective tissues.
X-Rays show no real tissue (as in lig, muscle, etc). Only bone tissues. It's done early just to ensure that if there is any bone damage, it could be set if possible.
Sources: I went to school for Radiologic Technology.
