The Wolves announced that Adreian Payne will be out indefinitely with a blood disorder, as USA Today passes along. The team said that Payne has thrombocytopenia, a condition that results in a low platelet count. It can cause bleeding, bruising and slow blood clotting after an injury, according to the publication.
Minnesota said that Payne has a good prognosis for recovery and he should be able to play basketball again once that happens. He’s currently receiving care from team doctors.
Payne hasn’t played much this season, seeing action in just 12 games. He was drafted by the Hawks with the 15th pick in the 2014 draft and Atlanta traded him to the Wolves during the 2014/15 season.
He’s not in a lot of payne is he?
I win the interwebs for the night.
Hope he has a quick recovery.
Twolves have 3 guys injured (Pekovic, LaVine, Payne). Curious to see what Thibs can do with Lance. They really only have Rush & Dunn at SG
