David Mirkovic suffers left foot injury
Just no reason at all to be thinking this.
If he doesn't play a single minute of basketball this year, how is that helping his cause to becoming a 1st round pick?
Okay, I know emotions are swirling, and maybe I’m a bit of optimistic here, or misinterpreting some of the intel, but insiders and pundits are speculating anywhere from 6-10(?) weeks (~2-3 months) until he’s back? Fully back? That feels quite… good I’d say right? Obviously, no injury is better, but a few weeks after a surgery seems like best case scenario!
Again, unless I’m missing something, Mirk, the guy who hates sitting on the sidelines, will be back and might not even miss a game. Will still be back to ramp up in the early easy non-conference. Put in time against the bigger games, being fully ramped up by the time conference is underway. He made it through all of conditioning and summer training. Packed on muscle, got more nimble, and the staff are very high on him being a POY candidate. Player bonding is high, QC just said he and Mirk grew close. I’m sure Mirk will be heavily involved in the team these coming weeks so he won’t miss a beat.
Idk, just seems like until we hear more from Brad & Co. I’ll relax and consider signs pointing to season expectations still on track. Plus as others have said, this means the depth pieces get more responsibility and reps to shine bright, prove themselves, and become even better.

Unless something goes wrong, he will be back on the court starting basketball activities in October.

Dammit! Now I'm worried something might go wrong!!!
I’ll factor in a month to regain conditioning & shake rust. Hoping by December he’s all the way back!
a significant piece of this is Fletch. he's always gotten guys ready to go, coming off injuries.
