Rockets’ Gerald Green likely out for extended stretch

Reserve swingman of the Houston Rockets, Gerald Green, has had his foot broken. According to sources, he may be out of the league for an extended period missing almost the whole stretch. 

Green was injured during a pre-season game where the Rocket’s defeated the Toronto Raptors in Japan on Thursday. His team established that they will be seeking medical opinions to confirm the condition and determine the best course to take for a full recovery. 

Green and his team of advisors are currently evaluating rehabilitation options offered by medical professionals after evaluating his condition. Though there is no confirmation, they are proposing that surgery may be on the table too. 

Either therapy or surgery, Green looks like he is going to miss a huge chunk of the season. The team may need to rework on their play. At the moment, he is listed as “out indefinitely.” Green earned an average of 9.2 points off the bench and his performance helped the team earn their spot in the league. 

Green’s absence in the team will deplete the wing depth that Rockets is known for. It was recently a cause of concern as if there was something going on within the team. The depth of the wings of others is far greater, but his performance as an athlete has already earned Green the respect and adoration of his fans and other colleagues in the game.

However, his absence may also be opening doors of opportunity for Gary Clark and Ben McLemore. Yet analysts say these two are still far from being pertinent in a 12-team league and a roster of 13 spots. 

The news of his broken foot was first reported in the Athletic. Gerald Green threw down a back-to-back slam. However, after a few minutes of possession, he started limping and was forced out of the game. The viewers were wondering what happened as he left the game without any announcement. It was unclear exactly what the star player was dealing with. 

His handlers decided not to make any declarations on his condition until they’ve spoken to a medical professional who can clarify the condition.

Once his condition was confirmed by a medical team, Green’s management team instantly made a statement on his condition. T

hey announced that they are waiting for confirmation if surgery will be needed. Soon after, they said they’d be able to make an announcement as to the course of treatment Green decides on.
