On the Golden State Warriors podcast with Jerry Feitelberg:

#1 Golden State Warriors guard Draymond Green will be out for the rest of the pre season as he tries to recover from a lateral ankle sprain. Jerry knowing you’ve had patients who you’ve seen with this injury during your pharmacy days how long does an injury like this take to recover from?

#2 Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said that Green may not even make it for opening night Tue Oct 24th vs. the Phoenix Suns.

#3 For this week Green has been given the okay by the Warriors medical team to begin light workouts, shooting drills, the Warriors say that Green will not be able to scrimmage and practice with the team yet.

#4 How much does Green’s injury play into his age at 33 and his recovery. Green like all players in the NBA eventually age and there comes a time when it could be the end of the road. In your opinion has Green reached that stage of his career.

#5 Kerr said using caution will not put Green in a five on five situation until he evaluates Green from his light workouts and shooting drills and see how the ankle does in those practices.
