Lebron James’ hand was slapped as he was shooting and he sprained a finger on his non-shooting hand. He left that game at half time and sat out the next three games. He is still listed as questionable. According to ESPN.com:
Is this for real? How does the most important player in basketball sit out four games with a sprained finger? As you might have guessed, it concerns me because he’s on my fantasy squad. But seriously, there has to be more to this story.
A sprained finger on your shooting hand can’t feel good. It’s not the playoffs either; it’s the beginning of the season. I can see treating this with kid gloves.
