On January 30, Landry Shamet was unlucky. He (again) injured his right ankle, as he stepped on his teammate Cam Johnson, returning to defense. A silly injury, which has deprived him of competition for almost three weeks and eight matches in a row.
“An accident like that is above all frustrating”concedes the Suns shooter at AZ Central. “How to avoid it? We can’t do much about it. It’s frustrating, but I’m not going to spend my time getting frustrated or worrying about it. “
The Suns shooter thinks above all of the future and is in no hurry to return since the All-Star Break is coming.
“I came back too soon from some ankle injuries in the past”he acknowledges. “With the team’s ambitions, and mine, I want to make sure I’m available for as long as possible. “
It must be said that the ankles of the former Nets are very fragile. He had already injured his right ankle, even before being drafted by the Sixers. In his second year, he missed 17 games in a row because of a problem with his left ankle. In 2020, in the “bubble”, with the Clippers, he was still hit in the right ankle. Finally, last season, he also missed several meetings in Brooklyn, always embarrassed by his right joint.
These weeks without competition allow him to breathe and recover, but the question of his return is still unclear. When can we imagine seeing him resume?
“I saw them in the training room, but they don’t do anything, no two-on-two or three-on-three”book Monty Williams, evoking Landry Shamet and Cameron Payne, hit in the wrist and absent since January 24. “They haven’t gotten to that point yet. They do cardio. We don’t have a schedule until they play in practice. “
