View Full Version : HOFFARBER INJURED!

Came down awkwardly trying for an offensive rebound. It wasn't obvious what happened, it looked to me more like his left ankle or knee when I saw the replay, but announcers claimed it was his right knee, and it was definitely his right leg that was injured. He was down in obvious pain and if I had to guess by Blake's reaction and the way he put absolutely no weight on his right leg, he's at the very least going to be out a month or two...possibly much worse!

:(

UPDATE:
Hoffarber is now back out of the locker room (with 7 minutes left) and GOOD NEWS - Hoffarber has his right ANKLE in a ton of ice. Not sure if it's a sprain or break or what, but an ankle injury is usually much less serious than a knee injury, which I was fearful of.

They just showed him sitting on the bench with ice on his right ankle.

That they didn't take him to Fairview-University Hospital is a good sign.

Tubby said when a starter gets hurt it means some other player is going to get a chance to show what they can do. I looks to me like Joseph and Bostick are going be getting more time at the 2 spot. In the long run this may have a silver lining. I hope Hoffarber is back soon. Still, I am glad to see Devoe and Devron get a chance to improve.

If it was that bad his foot wouldn't have been resting on/near the court.
