I heard from a reliable source that Rienk is on crutches and in a boot. Not great news

On Monday, my understanding was he tweaked his knee in practice... hadn't heard anything than that (could be serious or precautionary(we hope))...Originally posted by Bradley3342 View Post -
A boot would not be necessary with a knee issue. It suggests a foot or ankle issue.Comment

Bradley is deep with big men, thankfully. We have Ja'Shon back healthy, and could also see more playing time for Goanar Biliew and Connor Linke. It would have been nice if Ari had returned.Comment

Rienk suffered an ACL tear and underwent surgical repair in 2019, prior to leaving The Netherlands and coming to Bradley. He redshirted at Bradley his freshman season (2019-20).
The doctors who have examined him believe his current injury is a sprain of the MCL (medial collateral ligament), which would not require surgery. But they are waiting on imaging studies (MRI scan) for a final diagnosis and plan.

What's the best case scenario for an injury like that, Coach, assuming it's a sprain?Originally posted by Da Coach View PostLarry Bird
I've got a theory that if you give 100 percent all of the time, somehow things will work out in the end.Comment

I know that six weeks is the standard recovery time, depending on the severity of the sprain.Originally posted by Tommy View PostThe True Gentleman is the man whose conduct proceeds from good will and an acute sense of propriety, and whose self-control is equal to all emergencies... - John Walter WaylandComment

PhiAlpha is pretty accurate.... usually 4-6 weeks to recover.Originally posted by Tommy View Post
If it is a sprain, those will recover without surgery. But there are different degrees of sprains. The medial collateral ligament (MCL) is on the inside of the knee and attaches to the femur (thigh bone) above the knee and to the tibia (leg bone) below the knee. A doctor can gently stretch the ligament on an exam to see how much it "gives", and determine how badly it's been stretched by injury, and that can determine how severe the sprain was.
Here is a pretty good explanation of the different severities and treatments-
