Aron Baynes may return as soon as next week

Aron Baynes may be a lot of things (by some accounts, all of Australia), but one thing the man is is soft.

To the surprise of no one, Baynes is poised to return as soon as next week from an injury sustained the week before Christmas playing the Phoenix Suns, and injury people scoffed at reports he might return in a month to six weeks.

That injury, a broken hand damaged just moments into that game, would be precisely 28 days from the day it happened should Aron return for the January 16th matchup with the Toronto Raptors, no news to anyone familiar with the Aussie big man's approach to the game.
