A hip pointer is a deep bruise to the ridge of bone on the upper outside of your hip , called the iliac crest. It’s often a result of a direct blow to the hip or a hard fall. Hip pointer symptoms include pain and tenderness. Recovery from the injury usually involves taking a break from activity until it heals.
After reading a little he could be out for 1-3 weeks
No way he sits
Maybe use some sort of local pain killer and some Advil
If he can bear the pain. No way he is going to sit and miss this opp to play in his Last March madness tourney
Team needs to step up in the next game so he can sit and rest
If we can win without him then rest him keep him out of practice and by next Friday he may be able to go at a hi level
I didn’t think Grimes was hurt. He got hit twice but I don’t think it will keep him out of the games. Marcus can run point and so can Mark and Sheid. Win the next game and then we will have a week to see what happens.
Let’s see how he feels in the morning. We’ll know a lot more tomorrow if it is a serious condition we should be worried about or just sore and something a good night rest can heal.
What make hip pointers so tricky is there are so many muscles that attach to to the hip. So the contusion is one thing but then all the muscles that connect to the “crest”! Don’t think he will sleep very good tonight!
