Max Strus sustained a right ankle sprain during individual workouts on Thursday, October 17. An X-Ray and MRI confirmed the severity of the sprain. Strus will be reassessed after six (6) weeks of treatment and rehabilitation, and his status and return to basketball activities will be updated as appropriate. Strus missed two preseason games (vs Indiana & at Detroit) with a right hip contusion before the ankle injury that kept him out of the preseason finale in Chicago.
