One of the more discouraging points during Tuesday’s press conference came when Sean Marks was asked about Caris LeVert’s progress.
The Nets GM said LeVert is “progressing well” but added that he saw no need to rush the 6’7” swingman back early on.
The Nets first round pick is recovering from surgery for a “Jones fracture” of his foot, the same kind of break that so troubled Brook Lopez. Like Lopez, LeVert has suffered multiple breaks and like Lopez, LeVert’s surgeon is Dr. Martin O’Malley, the Nets foot and ankle surgeon.
How much time will LeVert miss?
