Kobe Bryant needs surgery to fix ligament damage in his right pinkie finger. This has been known for a long time.
For reasons I cannot even guess, he still hasn’t had the surgery, and is instead just making announcements. First he made an announcement as to when he’ll announce what he’s doing to do about the surgery. Now he’s announced that he will have the surgery, and announced that he will announce a date, sometime soon.
What the hell is going on?
Am I missing something?
Is there a medical reason for not having the surgery as quickly as possible? If so, I haven’t seen it mentioned by anyone covering this. It’s just weird.
Training camps open in a bit over three weeks.
