As we all know, Akok Akok is inching closer and closer to his return. It’s been just about 11 months since Akok went down with a horrific injury, rupturing his left Achilles tendon in a home game against Memphis.
It seems that pretty much every time Dan Hurley speaks to the media, the answer stays the same: Akok was ahead of schedule and expected back around the new year, but the pandemic and the pauses have thrown a wrench (no, not Isaiah Whaley) into his recovery plans.
There is no definitive timeline, but we should see the return of Akok within the next few games, so what should we expect from him this season?
