Bobcats not expecting Wallace back soon

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP)—The Charlotte Bobcats don’t expect top scorer Gerald Wallace to return until sometime after this month’s All-Star break as he recovers from a partially collapsed lung and broken rib.

Wallace was somewhere in middle America in a charter bus on Wednesday while coach Larry Brown put the Bobcats through a 2 1/2 -hour practice. Wallace was finally cleared to leave Los Angeles following his injuries against the Lakers on Jan. 27, but won’t be cleared to fly until at least Feb. 11.

Wallace, who left Tuesday on the 2,400-mile trip, was expected to arrive in Charlotte late Wednesday or early Thursday.

Brown said Wallace hasn’t been able to do any physical activity and didn’t expect him back for at least two weeks—and it could be much longer.

“We’ll just have to see how he’s feeling,” Brown said.

    • I just tried a few mock draft simulators and this is the only way lol. Nothing else makes sense. 
    • No, biggest weakness is pass rush, but I don't think there is a blue chip can't miss DE prospect to take at #1 this year, same as with QB.  But beyond that, moving forward, yea WR is a pretty damn big weakness. We have 1 game this season over 224 yards passing and just traded away our best WR (who wasn't going to re-sign here anyways).  That WR no longer on the team was also the only player we've had this year who had over 78 yards receiving in a game.  So again, yea, WR is one of our biggest weaknesses even right now, let alone moving into the future. As I just said in my other post, I love Legette, but he's not going to be a Top 5-10 WR type of guy, Top 15-20 I can see, I think he can be a good #1 WR or an elite #2. After that, what do we have for the future?  Thielen isn't part of it, sure as hell isn't going to be Mingo, and as much as we all like Coker, in no world is Coker as our #2 to Legette as the #1 going be considered as "having weapons" at WR, even with Brooks and Sanders. But put someone like T-Mac into that group, who I genuinely think is going to be a Top 5 WR in this league for a long time, and it changes things.  A Top 5 WR with Legette/Coker as the 2/3, along with Brooks and Sanders, has the potential to be one of the best set of offensive weapons in the league if they reach their potential.  
    • At this range currently he’s probably a day 3 pick, but I think he will rise to day 2.
