Trevor Booker Returns To U.S. With Injury, J.J. Hickson Replaces Him In Israel

PrintOur favorite Grown-Ass Man has apparently suffered a setback. Trevor Booker has returned to the United States and will likely be there for several weeks with an injury, according to the Bnei Hasharon website. A Google translate of that page reveals that it is unclear when Booker will return. It does not specify Booker's specific injury, but Booker had been suffering from a thigh contusion, so I'd imagine it's related to that.
It obviously must be serious, because the team has replaced Booker with Sacramento Kings forward J.J. Hickson. With NBA lockout talks breaking down, it makes sense for Bnei Hasharon to look for another NBA player. However, from Booker's perspective, this is bad news. Is there even going to be a spot for Booker if he gets healthy and can return to playing?
Booker's not the first Wizards player to suffer an injury since the lockout began. The other was Othyus Jeffers, who tore his ACL in July.

The curse of our medical team travels internationally I see...

In all seriousness...
Can we get someone from the PHX medical staff over here? You couldn’t find two medical staffs any MORE different in the results they get.
Reminds me of a recent Henry Abbott quote
The Warriors just hired the Spurs’ Chad Bergman as their head athletic trainer, and the Clippers’ JoHan Wang as director of athletic performance. Good people in those roles make a team way better; it’s amazing to me that most teams simply go with the guy they’ve had forever. True Hoop
