Have we found the LeBron of Hamstrings? 🙏🏾😭

They gonna inject his hamstring with German horse semen

He’s headed to Germany, whatever treatment they got over there is a different beast

Gonna be higher than Aaron Gordon trying to play Game 7 last year.

Bro really watched the game tonight and decided he wants to come back to this.

Roids arc lets go

Sounds like some European super PEDs that isn’t detectable by NBA standards

Ah learned from his pal Lebron. Germany here we come

SUPER SOLDIER SERUM HOLY SHIT 🙏🏽🙏🏽

Oh yeah lebron put him onto his German doctor. AR go with him too man.

Luka being soft is probably the dumbest narrative about him

Guy plays through everything. Sometimes to a fault

Him trying to return is the dumbest move. Even if he comes back at 100%, lakers will be annihilated by okc or spurs.

Its better he rests and get 100% than trying to do this

Bron must’ve put him on

lakers better stop him. like watching OG on knicks come back and couldnt move or harden losing a step after hamstring injury on nets. not something to fk around with

Bro likes to play basketball

Going to the dirk of hamstring docs

Probably going home early to try and figure things out with his family. I really doubt he comes back. But even if he does, I’m sure it’s nice to see his family

Holy shit, It’s time! Praying for an extra good recovery for Luka the Don

Germany treatment I’m excited

Luka Hardencic

I don’t think this is a good idea…but I do respect the effort.

(What I’m about to say is almost certainly cope, but having said that)

Remember when LeBron injured his foot in 2023 and almost everyone thought it was a season ending injury and maybe even a career altering injury? Even many of the biggest optimists were saying the earliest LeBron would join is during the playoffs. Lebron then went to Germany, got “treatment” done, and was somehow able to come back before the playoffs started and the Lakers made it to the WCF.

We all know Europe has some sus treatments that aren’t available in the USA. Maybe Luka is about to get some experimental shit that will allow him to come back sometime in the 1st round? (~3.5 weeks since injury, which would be around game 3 or 4 of the 1st round). This isn’t even unheard of for grade 2 hamstring injuries that don’t get the sus Europe medical treatment. Hell, Aaron Gordon played a game 7 on a grade 2 just last year.

If lakers can keep the 1st round somewhat close (maybe only down 2-1 or tied 2-2), it could be doable.

(Again, most of this is cope but it isn’t complete fantasy). 

He’s going to return early and get hurt.

This is what happens when you make a mandatory minimum of 65 games to be eligible for awards. They’re not just harmless awards, either; contracts and maximum pay days are tied to All-NBA selections and All-Star appearances.

Load management existed for a reason, but Anthony Davis and Kawhi Leonard ruined it for everyone and now players are forcing themselves to play hurt or rush recovery just to be eligible for awards.

Luka, now is not the time for a backpacking trip

Stem Cells like “aight pull up”

gonna be funny if he shows up with dem Turkish Veneers

Hmmm. The U.S. healthcare system sucks in a lot of ways, but at his level, U.S. medical care is still world-class. It’s not like they have different hamstrings in Europe. I hope this doesn’t mean he’s doing something stupid.

wtf lakers please do not rush a Luka injury with his history

He wants to be close to his kids.

“Specialized” meaning the Lebron PEDs route

No it’s not worth it

Dont do that Luka just wait until it’s fully heal.

This might be the first time in Luka’s pro career where he doesn’t have deep playoff run or national team duty.

Just rest up

With the big three healthy, it’s already tough getting out of the first round. With Reaves out, even if Luka magically fix his hamstring it’ll be tough.

FO treated this a gap year, then might as well commit to that and keep Luka/Reaves ready for next season.

Dr Strange using the time stone to fix Luka hamstring & return him to the current timeline to avoid the 65 game rule

I don’t like this. He might tears his Achilles like Hali did if he plays with an injured calf and hurts himself more. He should just rehab the right way

PR play or not, you gotta respect it. But we all know you can’t expedite hamstring recovery.

The Lakers are barely contenders at best, even when 100% healthy. Why would he do this?

He’s taking Reaves with him right? Right?

Take Austin too

Luka with the first Hamstring transplant

Heading to Germany to see Kobe’s blood spinning doctor I take it.
