Coby White went and severely hurt his shoulder on his day off, will be out of action potentially through training camp

This came out of left field: news broke Thursday afternoon that Coby White underwent surgery on his left (non-shooting) shoulder to address an injury suffered this past weekend.

There’s no clarification on what the surgery is repairing, but the team release did manage to:

1) Identify their medical partner in capital letters (and surgeon Brian “the butcher of Madison Street” Cole)

2) Say the injury was suffered during “basketball activities away from the team”. You hear that? It wasn’t The Advocate (tm) Center, a beautiful facility.

As a sufferer of GarPax derangement syndrome, I reflexively wonder how the team feels about guys not being “in our building” even though we haven’t seen that type of language from the new regime.
