Article is about Victor Oladipo's injury which happen the other night. He ruptured his quadriceps tendon and is out for the year. It answers a lot of the questions we have about JaMion Franklin's timeline and severity of injury. Doesn't sound good but depending on his work ethic and body he could make a near full recovery.
Dr. Rodney Benner -- a knee specialist and orthopedic surgeon at the Shelborne Knee Center in Indianapolis, as well as a team orthopedic surgeon for Purdue University -- told CBS Sports is "probably a little bit worse" than the more common ACL tear we often see in athletes.
I don't have high hopes for JaMion Franklin this upcoming year after reading this but in 2020 he will probably be back to normal. Sucks for Victor Oladipo. He is such a great player and really one of the good guys in the NBA. If Franklin attacks his rehab like Oladipo will I think he could play by middle of the next year. Oladipo has a legendary work ethic. Link below.
