Brooklyn Nets General Manager Billy King downplayed the bone spurs in Deron Williams’ ankle today, saying he’ll get it cleaned up after the season but it won’t affect his play during the season.
“It’s manageable,” King repeated. “A lot of players have had them. Don’t read too much into it. It’s not that big of a deal. I know it’s Deron, but there’s a lot of players that have had it, and they get it cleaned out. … It’s not a problem.”
Williams said yesterday that he has bone spurs in his ankle but it felt “like new” after a cortisone shot.
