RJ Barrett’s bone cut through his hand on finger dislocation injury

January 6, 2023 by Hoops Hype

Fred Katz: Spoke with RJ Barrett this morning in Toronto. RJ said Luka’s hand isn’t what caused his laceration. RJ’s left hand knocked into his right one, which dislocated a finger in his right hand. When it dislocated, the bone cut through his hand. He got six stitches, which are still in.

RJ Barrett described his injury this morning and it’s more gruesome than you might have though. Wasn’t a nail that cut him – it was the dislocation of the bone that caused the laceration. – 12:01 PM

More on this storyline

Fred Katz: Barrett said he’s seeing the doctor later this week and expects to get the stitches removed then. Sounds like he won’t need much of a ramp-up time to get his conditioning back. He’s been working out, shooting. Just needs the stitches to come out. -via Twitter @FredKatz / January 6, 2023
Steve Popper: Knicks have RJ Barrett listed as OUT for tomorrow night at Toronto. -via Twitter @StevePopper / January 5, 2023
Ian Begley: Knicks say Derrick Rose (left knee) is questionable and Obi Toppin (leg) is doubtful for tomorrow vs SAS. RJ Barrett (lacerated right index finger) remains out. This is an upgrade in status for Toppin. -via Twitter @IanBegley / January 3, 2023
