Is Barnes' knee something that can be scoped quickly or is it a wait, let's let heal on its own?

Seems like only our key guys are getting hurt, but when you have a great team, all of the starters seem key. Team with the best backups can go far in this league.

"...but further testing of his knee revealed the recovery time would extend beyond the minimum four games he’ll now be required to miss."

Just to be clear, he's on season-ending IR and not eligible or expected to come back after 4 weeks?

Designation to return only has to be declared when you want them to return to practice, but after four weeks.

He’s saying that they put him on IR because they know he will be out at least 4 games (min IR stay). He can come back after that time if able, as yet undetermined.

I don’t think they have a season-ending IR anymore

It's a shame about Barnes, any idea which ligament?
