Justin Patton breaks foot

[kekgeek]

Had surgery on his left foot today after breaking it in a offseason workout.

Out for summer league

This pretty much sums it up for me.

Ugh that sucks. It makes me less excited about summer league...but I'll still watch because I may see the next Anthony Randolph! Lol

I'd sign Stephen Zimmerman so fast. I don't care how many bigs we have. That kid is talented. Only 20 years old and he has a decent jumper.

Oh crap!!!! The bad luck of this franchise never ceases to amaze me. Now watch Giles and John Collins kick ass as rookies.

[Lipoli390]

Can we get an injury cap exception? If so, it would free up about another $2.5 million in cap space. At this point, that would be huge for us.

I should add that Flip told me a major reason he passed on McCollum was the foot injury on advice of the Wolves medical staff. He said that particular injury tends to be reoccurring. Anyway, just passing on what Flip said.

Really sucks and I just hope it's not the Jones fracture that is tough to heal.

It was just announced we signed Patton...

I had read the cap hold for 1st round picks is 120% of their projected base salary, so signing him might actually add a few dollars to our cap space.

hmm I wonder what his final cap figure is going to be then.
