Jeffries out 6-8 weeks

October

Figures.

Jared Jeffries clearly spent most of the summer getting himself ready to find a niche in the new system, and he was getting praise from teammates and coaches alike.

Mike D’Antoni saw a potential matchup problem.

The plan is now on hold. Jeffries stepped off the floor in pain this afternoon up at Skidmore and tests revealed a fractured left fibula. He’s done running for the next 6-8 weeks.

We’ve been down this road before.

Jeffries can’t seem to catch a break. I know, he’s been a bad signing to date, but we need to remember he’s among the few players on this roster who’s got a history of making a team better. When he was on a pretty good team in Washington, Jeffries kept the ball moving and played hard defense.
