"He's been banged up a little bit, Kelly said. It's nothing that we're overly concerned with. There is no structural damage to any joints or things of that nature."

"Look, he's been out for a year. Everything hurts a little bit more after coming back into it. We have to be careful with him."

"He had an ankle sprain, nothing that we were too concerned with but were concerned with everything when you have a player of his caliber so we're going to be careful with him."
