Friday was for worrying and wondering, absorbing the gloom surrounding the injury to one of the most popular team members.
Saturday, however, was for relief and reassurance, feeling grateful it wasn't far more severe and didn't happen during the regular season.
Glenn Robinson III wore a boot on his left ankle and sat with his leg propped on a chair while the Pacers practiced Saturday morning at St. Vincent Center, but found optimism in the medical staff's diagnosis. He's scheduled to miss the next eight weeks while recovering from the sprain suffered in Friday's practice, but hopes to return earlier than that.
