Unless the med staff told the FO something we don't know about, this seems like a pretty massive overreaction by the FO. Big men miss games. They just do. The bigger they are, the more games they tend to miss. Lots of stress on their bodies/joints/etc.

Does that factor in games missed due to Covid though? I was just thinking last week how nice KAT would look here instead of KP. I think the initial shock of the trade has worn off. Sucks that we are stuck with Bertans and his trash contract, but SD should (hopefully) be a serviceable player. Only hope is that they both guys can get their stock to rise, and we move them in the offseason. KP has star potential, but I won’t miss wondering whether or not he is going to be able to play. Everytime he dunked the ball and landed on one foot I kept waiting for his leg to snap in half.
