Guillem Gonzalez-Lomas, MD, of NYU Langone’s Sports Medicine Center, shares his thoughts on Knicks big man Precious Achiuwa not being cleared for contact after missing nearly a month’s worth of action with a hamstring injury.
The 24-year-old Watford has been removed from the injury report for Sunday’s game at the Knicks.The versatile forward had been set to debut earlier this month, but suffered a setback to his hamstring.When he got a chance during Brooklyn’s youth movement down the stretch, he raised his production to 12.9 points and 5.7 boards in 25.4 minutes over the final 11 games.
With Claxton and Sharpe their only two natural centers, Ben Simmons is taken away from his natural position as a lead guard. Through 13 games, the Nets have already challenged calls 16 times. And they have a solid 10-6 record. “And you cannot control all the time. You can have a feel for it. When also you’re behind, sometimes you want to maybe take a little more of the risk. But we’re not going to take those challenges home. That’s something we know. It punished at the end, because we didn’t have the timeout. But if we don’t win those challenges, we don’t get there having an opportunity to win. So, Connor did a great job.
