Premium Member Sothron Posted July 22, 2021 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 22, 2021 So six months means Feb return at the earliest. Huge loss to our team. This almost certainly will have us looking for a veteran BU center now. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go get Dwight for a retirement tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bleachkit Posted July 22, 2021 Report Share Posted July 22, 2021 Okongwu, Hunter, Reddish, all of our young studs have had injury problems early in their careers. It's very concerning to say the least. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Popular Post lethalweapon3 Posted July 22, 2021 Author Moderators Popular Post Report Share Posted July 22, 2021 This young man was thwarting Embiid and Giannis as best he could with a torn shoulder? More like Okingwu, amirite? https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/31859473/atlanta-hawks-onyeka-okongwu-6-months-shoulder-surgery-sources-say Quote Okongwu's role grew as the season wore on for the Hawks, but a lingering injury beginning in May resulted in the need for the procedure. Renowned surgeon Dr. Neal ElAttrache of Kerlan-Jobe performed the procedure on Okongwu in Los Angeles, sources said. ~lw3 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this may mean that Collins re-signing is more of a priority and Hawks have to up their offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Popular Post lethalweapon3 Posted July 22, 2021 Author Moderators Popular Post Report Share Posted July 22, 2021 Not directly related but just FYI for locals not already in the know: Hawks coverage from the AJC over the next couple weeks might be limited, because Sarah Spencer's getting hitched! Congrats to Sarah. (EDIT: "I'm told" C-Viv is still milling about, and he wrote up a Draft article for AJC a few days ago, so I expect he'll lead the charge with local AJC Hawks coverage until Sarah's honeymoon ends.) ~lw3 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post RedDawg#8 Posted July 22, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 22, 2021 Sucks for OO. Was really looking forward to him getting much needed development work this offseason. He may bounce back but, next year might be a lost cause after we sign a suitable replacement to fill in for the first 3 months of the season. Ughhhh these injuries never end 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NBASupes Posted July 22, 2021 Report Share Posted July 22, 2021 Man, so that means we might not see a major jump for OO or Hunter since they are getting no real offseason. Eeek! I am glad he addressed it now. He's going to be out till at least Jan. Sucks! This obviously means getting another center is higher on the priority scale. Sadly, the draft is weak so FA it is. I hope we can bring Dedmon back. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spud2nique Posted July 22, 2021 Report Share Posted July 22, 2021 Tough news. Hoping he comes back around all star break ready for that second half push. Man, I really felt he was gonna come in next year and really jump to a higher and more consistent level for us. Still happening just delayed a bit. Get healed Onyeka and come back stronger. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
