The remaining ones are the king? Four stars who suffered major injuries in the playoffs: Two stars have ruptured their Achilles tendon, which is a pity
2:31pm, 17 May 2025【Basketball】
On May 14, as the playoffs deepens, everyone should find that the easier it is for teams with excellent lineups and healthy teams to win games. To date, many luxury-on-paper teams have begun to show weakness due to injuries or insufficient lineup thickness. Teams such as Celtics and Warriors, although winning championships in the playoffs requires a lot of factors, health may be the ultimate important. Many stars have suffered injuries in the playoffs this season. Next, we will take a look at the four stars who were seriously injured in the playoffs.
Tatum
The official news from the Celtics today is that Tatum underwent a rupture repair surgery for Achilles tendon and there is no specific recovery schedule. In yesterday's opponent Knicks, he fell to the ground without any confrontation and kept touching the Achilles tendon, but the result was as expected. Tatum's injury undoubtedly put a shadow on the Celtics' path to defending their title. It is impossible for Brown and White to win the championship with their elderly, weak, sick and disabled people. In fact, what everyone is worried about now is whether Tatum can recover from health.
The one who recovered from such injuries in NBA history seems to be Durant. However, after Durant returned from a serious injury, his athletic ability and physical fitness were obviously not good. If it weren't for his comprehensive skills, he might not have the level of a star. After Tatum's return, I suggested that he learn Durant and improve his offensive skills. He averaged 40.7 minutes per game in the playoffs. Too much dependence led to his current ending. There is no legendary killing king, but someone has been moving forward with weight, and Tatum deserves respect.
Lillard
Lillard, like Tatum's early career, was almost uninjured. Therefore, he did not take it seriously after suffering some injuries. He fought if he could. If others encountered venous thrombosis, they might have to be reimbursed for the season. As a result, Lillard chose to return in more than a month. Although the thrombosis was cleared, there was no high-intensity game for a long time. When he came back, he was in the intensity of the playoffs and no one could stand it. In the end, Lillard suffered a rupture of the Achilles tendon without confrontation. There were too many players with rupture of the Achilles tendon this season, and there were two in the playoffs.
Lillard's situation seems to be worse than Tatum. The reason why he says so is that Lillard is already 34 years old and he may not be able to make a comeback next season. In this case, after returning, he is here. The main reason why Letters want to leave the team is that the team's championship window was locked. Although Lillard does not rely on explosive power, after his return, his speed will probably decline seriously. It is probably difficult to still maintain the level of a top star. It is probably difficult to win the championship until his career retirement.
Curry
Today, the Warriors officially announced that Curry will miss the fifth game against the Timberwolves. Now the Timberwolves lead the Warriors 3-1, and Curry will not come back in the next game. In other words, the Warriors may end this season in G5. It’s not that Curry doesn’t want to make a comeback, but this hamstring injury has a significant impact on him. Many fans may think that the hamstring injury should not have a big impact on the players, right? You should know that the reason why Harden and Halliburton performed frequently was because of their hamstrings. If they did not recover from their injuries, they would suffer from repeated tortures.
Curry suffered a hamstring injury. I think the main reason is that he has too much running. A 37-year-old player is still running on the court and is obviously unbearable. In the regular season, Cole can reduce the playing time and allow him to rest sufficiently, but in the playoffs, he dare not let Curry rest for too long in order to win. If the Warriors can win the G5 of the series, it is estimated that Curry will not be able to make a comeback in G6. They are still far from winning the championship team. It is wise to end the season early and focus on offseason signings.
Morant
Although the Thunder swept the Grizzlies 4-0, friends who have watched the game know that the Thunder won not be easy. After coming to the Grizzlies' home court, the Grizzlies once led the Thunder to 26 points, but then Dort directly used his trick to dirty Morant, causing him to end up and miss the next game, which made the Grizzlies eliminated. It is said that Morant is too easy to get injured, but this time, if it weren't for Dolter's trick, he wouldn't have been injured. Morant suffered a hip contusion. In the G4 series, Morant was even more using crutches to watch the game.
The Grizzlies have a good lineup now. Morant, Bain and Jaren Jackson. The team has made it to the playoffs three times in the past four years. Once they missed the playoffs due to a large core injury. Now young players such as Pippen and Zhou Zhihao have also begun to realize their talents. What they lack is a core with a high attendance rate and a stable score. If Morant does not change his playing style, he will miss more games due to injuries in the future, and the Grizzlies may give up on him because of this.
