Mike Conley's probably devastated that the Memphis Grizzlies lost to the Golden State Warriors in the second round, but a part of him should be a little relieved. Or, rather, several parts of him. Conley told the Memphis Commercial Appeal's Peter Edmiston the full extent of his injuries, and it's quite a lengthy list:
Asked Mike Conley his full injury list: Broken face Strained neck L wrist sprain R wrist sprain Lower back tightness R foot sprain
— Peter Edmiston (@peteredmiston) May 18, 2015
In addition to all that, Conley had two sprained ankles earlier in the season. They still aren't 100 percent, according to Edmiston, even though the point guard didn't mention them.
It's hard to even comprehend what Conley was enduring, though reading Rob Mahoney's Sports Illustrated feature will give you an idea. His production may have tailed off a bit after leading the Grizzlies to a Game 2 victory against the Golden State Warriors, but the fact he was on the court and competing is incredible. Here's hoping he lays low for a while.
