Many asking about Bufkin not being listed on injury reports for the last few weeks… and that’s a valid question!

Not exactly a ton of transparency, but he suffered the shoulder subluxation on October 19. Played through it. Got more medical opinions. And surgery was the choice.

Give me Kevon Harris

They will never list upper body injuries

why not?

Because opposing players will target that injury and make it worse

I like Kobe but the shoulder stuff is starting to quickly remind me of Markelle Fultz. Either way expect the Hawks to make a move for back up PG (Cole Anthony) soon

I hope he recovers, but the best ability is availability and Kobe's injuries are effectively meaning he's had two years of little playing time.

After Seth and now this are the Hawks changing how long they wait on players to get healthy?

Damn, brutal for a guy who was finally getting some run. Vít Krejčí time, baby.

You called it. “There will be injuries.” Bummer. Guessing this will amp up trade speculation in search of a backup PG
