Gabe Vincent still can't recover from this left knee injury that has ruined his life since signing with the Lakers. Suffering from synovial effusion since the end of October, the former Heat leader returned to the floor against the Bulls this week for 14 minutes (3 points, 3 assists), before feeling pain again.
His knee is swollen again, and Shams Charania has just confirmed that Gabe Vincent will undergo surgery to be permanently rid of this problem. A decision which will keep him away from the field between six and eight weeks. Which means we won't see him again until after the All-Star Game cuts off…
“We have to make sure that everything is going well for him and that his health is good, above all,” Darvin Ham explained. “Then we try to activate plan B, with the next player. But our first priority is to make sure we know what he has and put him in a position to be healthy. »
While waiting for the return of Gabe Vincent, Darvin Ham tried a new formula during the last match in OKC, with a LeBron James – Cam Reddish “backcourt”. Disappointingly, D’Angelo Russell started on the bench.
