Reggie Jackson injury not changing Stan Van Gundy’s roster plans

Coach Stan Van Gundy announced Saturday that Jackson will have a platelet-rich plasma injection on Monday to help ease the issues from the tendinitis, which worsened just before the team began voluntary workouts last month.

It’s unclear how long Jackson will be sidelined, but Van Gundy estimated that it could be 6-8 weeks.

“He will get the PRP injection in New York on Monday,” Van Gundy said. “I haven’t gotten the timetable but it’s a significant amount of time. He’ll be on crutches for three to seven days.

Reggie Jackson update: likely 4-6 weeks before he can be cleared for basketball activity.
