@benhogan is ok with that.
If you were picking 20 consecutive regular season games for him to miss, you might not pick games 10-30, you'd probably rather 30-50, but that'd be pretty high on the list.
Yeah I perused the schedule and hate having one of the west coasts during it but should be able to handle GS, Sac, PHX reasonably well without him.
I'd guess 4-6 weeks as a median projection, hence the Xmas range over/under.
. Didn't intend for my post to be snarky, just giving speculation that "hand" might be a little more specific than it sounds at first blush.
Is there any reason where he wouldn't be able to keep running, swimming, or stationary biking, to keep his conditioning up? Will he be in a cast? Pain level?

Swelling. Plus, if he’s in a cast, there’s the smell factor.
Thanks for the inside knowledge. What's with the hand above heart level? Reduce blood flow to hand to limit swelling/pain?
Seems like this is a complete guess since he's supposedly not seeing doc til tomorrow and deciding on surgery...did that change?
Karma for our he acted in that gender reveal video.
Don't know if this specific tweet is a complete guess or not, but in general they pretty much know.
Not to quibble with a fellow expert, but don’t you find some specialists prefer to redo X-rays? Sometimes things are missed because the x-ray tech did a poor job and the doctor couldn’t get a clear bone picture.
Everybody wants to do their own x-ray, with their own machine, with their own tech.

Sure, sometimes they will. I'm just saying there is a high likelihood the plan is already in place with what they have. They still could get a few more X-rays for confirmation but as long as the 4th metacarpal fracture isn't involving the joint, they probably know all they need.
Do you think they can trade Hayward's X-rays and an MRI plus a late second round pick for Giannis or Anthony Davis? Because I think they can.
I'd be very surprised. Boxer's fracture is usually 5th metacarpal (occasionally also in combination with 4th as well) that occurs when punching something hard with closed fist. It's at a specific location and has a specific angulation, hard to imagine Hayward did that just awkwardly running into a screen.
I concur.
Yeah, I had a boxers break as well. Also from throwing a punch. Hard to imagine that's what happened to Hayward.
