    CC has yet to make his Hawk debut and doesn't look like hes still able to after the AS break. out since jan 26th. not good. the rockets may have dodged a big one. They would be forced to play small and this without covington had they not dealt him

    I think there is more to the injury than what the Rockets are saying. It reminds me of when we traded Aaron Brooks to Phoenix.

    Now we know why it took a first in addition to Capela to get RoCo.

    Isnt Plantar Fascitis a chronic condition? Capela might have to deal with his injury for the rest of his playing career.

    More likely that the Hawks are tanking, and would rather just lose and make sure Clint is 110...

    You really have to take a few months off to get past plantar fasciitis. I am a big man but not near the size of clint so it may take him longer. I battled it until I legitimately didnt do anything more than walking for 8-10 weeks. Hasnt bothered me since.

    Yeah, Damian Lillard had plantar fasciitis back in 2015 but he rehabbed it pretty well.

    Just wanna say the Hawks FO is getting as overrated as Trae Young. They have lowkey been sucking in the draft and with their moves:

    1. Passing on Luka to get Young
    2. Trading up to get Hunter and Reddish
    3. Getting Capela who has plantar fascitis

    Not surprised if they stay horrible for a long ass time with that core.
