Well, the injury wasn’t misreported, per se, but they definitely chose their words carefully so people wouldn’t think it was as serious as it is. I think if you’ve been watching sports long enough, when his injury happened there was no way there wasn’t at least some sort of partial tear. But, he’s so young and full of potential and he’s had such an injury prone start to his career, that I think the team was kind of afraid to publicly call it a tear. Don’t play him at all when we tip back off, hopefully he comes back at 100% around Christmas time when the 20-21 season is expected to start.

A sprain, which is what it was reported as, is damage to a ligament. A grade 2 sprain is a partial tear of the ligament, a grade 3 sprain is a complete tear. I tried to inform everyone of this when his injury occurred. The injury was not mis-reported. People just don't know what a sprain is.
