Looks like N'Faly Dante is still a few weeks out until he's full-go but he should be ready by mid-December.

That surprised me. Thought he'd have been healed already.

Same, I didn’t realize how bad of an injury it was.

Sounds like maybe he is healed, but needing time to get back into playing shape, as well as the staff wanting to be very careful bringing him back to full speed. Altman mentioned that Dante thinks he is ready to go now.

Just really hoping he can play the full season once he comes back. Life is tough out there for large men and lower leg injuries. If that takes an extra month of care and conditioning, I'm all for that!

Not surprising that a big guy is taking longer to recover from a leg injury. Makes sense to wait until he's fully cleared and ready to play
