If they clear Lively), I don’t know why any of us should have issues.

Agreed and perhaps singing from the same hymn sheet. Just think Lively gets into the “can’t guarantee availability even if rested” area.

True. But KAT was also much more of a proven commodity than Lively is. Lively has 98 total regular season games at 13/11/2 per 36 right now.

Can not, can not take a player with injury risk making him available.

Why not?

This has actually been part of Leon’s MO. He got both KAT* & OG when their trade value was diminished by injury risk & availability.

Our medical staff has been excellent keeping them (and Mitch) healthy. If they clear Lively), I don’t know why any of us should have issues.

* I think people forget how big a risk KAT was. He had missed almost half of the Wolves games the prior two seasons.

“Why can’t we just play Andre Drummond for four months and start playing him after the all star break?”

No guarantee he’ll be available then, either. And even if so, maybe not for long given his lengthy injury history, which even at his young age is more extensive than Mitch’s.

Can not, can not take a player with injury risk making him available. Like the team’s unit in that regard, but not here and now.
