Brazile’s Injury Sets Summer League Back | SEC Basketball News

Trevon Brazile, newly drafted by the Denver Nuggets, is sidelined with a strained right shoulder just one game into his Summer League debut — a setback that could ripple through his rookie season. Despite putting up 5 points and 11 rebounds in his debut, the injury comes on the heels of a torn ACL in his college debut at Arkansas, where he still helped the team reach the Sweet Sixteen. He even played through shoulder pain in a March game, finishing 25 minutes in a Sweet Sixteen loss. With only a few days to recover before his next Summer League matchup, coaches may hesitate to rush him back — but NBA rookies often face adversity, and this injury could impact his early playing time with Denver. His next chance to play? A July 16th game against Portland if he misses Tuesday’s matchup. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
