2021-2022 MAVS NEWS: 4th in West | WCF loss [ARCHIVED]

[TXBamanut]

Maxi was infected about a year ago. Combined with his back injury, it seemed to take him off his game for the rest of the season. Now he has a new case?

What's the deal with Eugene's foot? Disappointing that he can't get into the rotation when there are minutes to be had.

I guess this means that KP is OK, despite missing much of the 3rd & 4th quarters in MIN?

Did I hear Luka is targeting the 12/25 game for return?

1)  Maxi has entered H&S protocols, but we don't know if he has COVID, at least, none of the reports I saw said he tested positive.

2)  I don't expect it will effect Maxi the same if he does get it.  The latest study in Qatar looked at 250,000+ (unvaccinated) people for a year after they got it.  Out of that group only 1304 got it a second time, and almost all of them were extremely mild symptomatically.  Only 4 cases required hospitalization - 0 ICU stays and 0 deaths.  Having it once, from every study I've read and I've tried to read everything I could on that, if you even do get it again, which is rare, usually results in a mild case that isn't that big of a deal.  If he's vaccinated and I expect he is, that's another layer of protection.

3)  That sucks about Eugene...hopefully he'll be back.

4)  Not only was KP changed to "questionable", but also to "right TOE soreness", which is a whole lot different than a pain in the arch, the way I understand it.  I'm only a layman there, so grain of salt.

5)  I heard people speculate on that, because it's a big national game on Christmas, but I haven't seen anything official on that.  A lot of people were also speculating because it didn't really look like Luka was visibly limping and he wasn't wearing an ankle brace or anything as he went through full workouts before games.  Who knows?
