What do you mean 5-6? He was always meant to keep the boot for those 4 weeks and I think evaluation is today or tomorrow. Edited February 15 by RipCity0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Stefan 1,193 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I found this on reddit: It doesn't sound like he plans on being back before Nurk. He just tweeted back and forth with Nurk saying he looks forward to watching Nurk's return (which is expected to be mid-late March). The tweets make it sound like he isn't even with the team yet.

Well that's some speculation. It's not that Nurk has some set date to return. What seems certain is that he will not be back before ASB. Hopefully he will be ready by March 10. That will be 7+ weeks. Not sure what you mean he isn't with the team? On roadtrip? He attended the last home game, but no use to travel since he cannot play right now. It's dangerous as well due to covid.

RipCity0 759 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 McCollum told The Athletic. "Heading in the right direction.'' McCollum said no imaging was taken, and the doctor just wanted to see the foot in person. He said he is now cleared to begin ball handling and free throw shooting while also starting to ramp up his weight training and walking. McCollum said it was too early to say whether he expects to be cleared to play after the two-week evaluation. "I'm in no rush. I guess we'll see how I feel and what they say in two weeks,'' he said. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DepressedKnicksFan 26 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Saw on his Instagram the boot is off while he was doing some shooting drills. I expect him to play first week after All-Star. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

samatz82 17 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Injured (left foot fracture) McCollum will be re-evaluated on March 2. He has started some light on-court work but doesn't appear close to a return. “He’s not doing much,” coach Terry Stotts said. “Whatever you’ve seen him do on social media is about all that he is doing. The rehab is going well, they are pleased with the way the foot is healing, but there is really not much more to it than that. I mean, he’s not running, stationary shooting. He needs to let it run its course.” Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But the key part imo is: "they are pleased the way the foot is healing"... that probably means it has not healed proper yet. Having said that... 2-3 weeks after the ASB seems reasonable enough.

THis was further down in the article. There are six more days until Nurkic and McCollum are evaluated. And probably around two weeks before there is thought of them playing in a game. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
