Although he was injured, Wei Shao off the field still cares about the team! In the last game of the Clippers' 89-88 away victory over the Timberwolves, Wei Shao ** Powell's fast break dunk and praised the performance of his teammates. After the game, the young master pushed again and said: "Win away!" Two more! "Cheer on my teammates.

In 2014, Wei Shao suffered the same injury, and he came back in less than a month, but the years are not forgiving, can the current young master still have such a recovery ability?
In addition to Wei Shao, fans are also concerned about Booker's injury. According to Suns reporter Duane Rankin this morning, Booker will miss multiple games due to a sprained right ankle! The time frame for the comeback is 5-14 days. Judging from the current experience of the Suns, it is of course the best for Booker to return in 5 days, but fans should also prepare for the worst, that is, wait until 14 days.
Booker was injured in the game against the Rockets on March 3, and in the final quarter Booker sprained his right ankle when he stepped on the foot of teammate Royce O'Neal in the final quarter. The good news was that Booker's ankle X-ray came back negative after the game. Fans said that the Booker generation really couldn't play with high intensity.

Three-point shooting percentage is 494/37.9/88％。It is worth mentioning that if Booker misses 5 more games this season, he will not win the regular season award! According to the league's new rules, MVP, DPOY and All-NBA are required to play at least 65 games, each of which lasts at least 20 minutes.
Unlike the Clippers, Willis was injured but the team was still able to win the game. And Nurkic and Booker's successive injuries, the Suns have suffered 2 consecutive defeats recently! The team's current record is 35-26 and has fallen to the play-in zone. I really feel sorry for Durant, and I have to rely on death to support me alone.
Finally, I will hand it over to you, and I wish Booker and Wei Shao an early return.
