Luwawu-Caborrot Has Knee Tendinitis

NOTHING TO SEE HERE, FOLKS. NOTHING TO SEE HERE. Just a common knee inflammation that most certainly won’t result in a delayed return, weeks of miscommunicated faux updates and, eventually, season-ending surgery. Nope. Just a common knee thing.
Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot left the French National Team training with an injury. The 76ers guard will miss Eurobasket with a patellar tendinopathy.
Calling it patellar tendinopathy both reminds me of Chase Utley’s weird need thing and scares the shit out of me. Socially, we’ve agreed that tendinitis is not much to be alarmed about, but someone forgot to the inform the Turkish translation that two big words put together with latin suffixes* makes it sound so much worse. TLC doesn’t want to see no (doctor) scrubbbbbbbbbs. No, no, scruuuuuubs.
*I have no idea if those are Latin.
