i read that Alterique's status will be "evaluated" in Hawaii where he will be examined by the doctor who performed his shoulder surgery. What does this mean? All that I have read on the internet suggests that a dislocated shoulder requires 12-16 weeks to fully heal. That suggests this could be a season ending injury for Alterique. It's a shame because he is a talented and promising player. He is clearly the best ballhandler on this roster and his presence would be missed, plus the missed chance at developing chemistry with his teammates. His loss could be very damaging. This sucks for him, the team and the fans.
