I’ve spent the morning trying to process the Jaden Ivey injury news and am still firmly in the denial stage, hoping that this won’t set the team back too much or endanger Ivey’s long-term future with the Pistons, but it’s hard not to be pessimistic.
Ivey will be re-evaluated in the middle of November after having a procedure for knee discomfort that had been bothering him progressively throughout training camp, something the team never bothered to mention until after he had the procedure.
In the best-case scenario, Ivey is back before December and has plenty of time to get into a groove for a playoff push.
