Chance Westry Transferring to Syracuse

[UpstateSM]

I don't think our floor drops at all if Westry is our long term but our ceiling is definitely lower

 

[NYCCuse826]

So he’s going to be at Monroe Maddness, I don’t think that implies that it’s not overly serious. He could show up on crutches.

If it's an ACL, surgery is performed after swelling goes down. You can walk around with a brace and crutches until then.

 

[tptcuse]

I can’t imagine how frustrating it must be being a high level athlete and having multiple injuries in your prime.

 

[Jake]

Fudge!

 

[Orangezoo]

Uggh that sucks. Quadir now has to step up and Cuffe likely now has a role. I hope I'm wrong but wonder if Chance has the kind of issue Brandon Roy did.

Yup. Him being at Midnight Madness means next to nothing.

 

[OrangeDW]

This “lower body injury” stuff has me rooting hard for an ankle injury and not a knee.

It’s a weird place to be as a fan. Wish they could just say what it is.

Could be a meniscus:

What is the recovery time for a meniscus tear?

In many cases, rehabilitation can be carried out at home, although your doctor may recommend working with a physical therapist. Rehabilitation time for a meniscus repair is about 3 to 6 months. A meniscectomy requires less time for healing — approximately 3 to 6 weeks.

 

[Orangezoo]

I'm sure there will be a few sky is falling folks after this. Isn't the case at all. Just means we really need Quadir to be ready to step in.

Exactly what I thought.

 

[rrlbees]

Well this sucks. Get healthy soon Chance.

 

[PauliePeppas]

brutal….Q and Cuffe time to step up

 

[AZOrange]

The fact that this was called a procedure as opposed to knee surgery is probably positive. Guessing meniscus

 

[5OutFred]

Although 'indefinite + procedure' is typically chalked to season-ending, it may be too soon for timeline assumptions until further medical consultation. Hoping for the best.

Most likely a scope needed using that language to your point. May be called an injury but very possible it's been nagging him to the point it had to be addressed.

Can never have nice things lately

This team has a lot of nice things and guys that should be able to step up. We just need this to be short term so we can have him for league play

 

[jr4750]

Well here he is 1hr ago. Seems in a good mood.

No crutches or boot good sign

Probably this I assume.. Glad we have enough depth this year where it won’t matter.

Is that "V" for Victory, or "V" for Vasectomy?

 

[bballbeadle]

Poor guy! I am the sad.

 

[Lukeyloo]

Oh man. He was just fully cleared! Feel absolutely awful for him.

 

[orangefog]

Oh man. He was just fully cleared! Feel absolutely awful for him.

For him? What about us?

Well an owie in football normally wouldn't sound so bad either, but we have a way of escalating owies and procedures to season ending.
