I'm saying anybody should be able to see he was not hampered by a rib injury this past season..period. A groin is a different matter, that can be an injury you can aggravate from time to time but it not hinder you much of the time. He was absolutely not nursing a broken rib in his season highlights though.
My doctor found an inguinal hernia in my annual checkup 2 years ago that I didn't even know I had. She said I could have had it for years because they often have little pain or discomfort. His recovery time was short so in all likelihood it was minor.
TLJohnson. I don't believe anybody could move completely unencumbered and without grimacing if they had a symptomatic rib injury. It WASN'T a rib injury though, it was apparently a rather minor groin injury. More than likely a hernia, they can be virtually symptom free.
So if something is symptom free, can it affect someone's play? I might be missing something here?
donm. I didn't watch much Duke basketball last season. I have reviewed the season highlights of Reddish though. In those highlights there was no limitations of movement at all that I could see. Broken ribs are not a come and go thing symptom or otherwise, but some groin injuries can be. By the description of his groin surgery as ''minor'' and with the statement that he should heal in a few weeks, obviously it's not a severe tear. My guess is it's a inguinal hernia, which is often symptom free or near symptom free. If it's not too bad surgery often isn't necessary. When surgery is recommended it's often just making a small incision, pushing the intestine back into the cavity and suturing the muscle closed, it's a minor procedure and typically heals quickly.
Just thought I'd give a heads up. The Hawks play their 1st summer league game tomorrow against The Timberwolves who drafted Jarrett Culver. Hunter vs Culver will be interesting. Reddish won't play because he's recovering from groin surgery.
The team's young core of 7 players averages almost exactly 21 years of age. The old man in the group is Omari Spellman at the ripe old age of 21 years 9 months. Obviously this team won't peak for at least 4 years, but watching these kids progress should be fun.
Also, no f..g way Reddish was playing with a symptomatic broken rib, He injured the thing early last fall and the typical recovery time is only 6 to 8 weeks. Plus, I know what I saw on film.
Search me Orlando. Off the top of my head I can't think of what stake The team might have in this.

Thanks Muffingod. Now it's about as clear as my college algorithms classes, so not very.
