Surgical Success for Jerebko and White

by Natalie Sitto on October 10, 2010

Jonas Jerebko and Terrico White both had successful surgeries Friday. Jerebko had surgery on his partially torn right Achilles tendon, and Terrico White had surgery to repair a fractured bone in his right foot.

  • White is expected to be in a cast for six weeks, followed by rehabilitation.
  • Jerebko will be out 5 to 6 months.

Y’all take a look at this link, says some encouraging stuff about Jerebko’s tendon

pretty much says that this Don Reid guy played for the Pistons in 95, got the same sort tendon torn but worse than Jerebko, he recovered faster than 5 monhts but now the rehab technology is so much more advanced

To see what Austin Daye is doing this pre-season is encouraging, and nobody has a 100% healthy career…it’s something that happens to every athlete. Wins or losses, it’s gonna be another exciting season!
