Blake's Injury a blessing

He is lucky this happened early in the off season in a practice. The underlying issue would have caused an injury eventually and it might have been more severe later.

Playing in the Olympics is a great honor but it takes a toll on you physically. Blake had his knee issue at OU, missed his entire rookie season and now had this issue. Probably the best thing to happen to him is to have these 4 months off to completely rest and heal his body.

I agree. Not to mention how physical FIBA play is. Now some goon can't take him out.

As a Thunder fan I'm kind of worried about the big three all participating in the Olympics. I know these guys are young, but that's a lot of basketball given the deep playoff run.
