Worst-case injuries
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
With Amare Stoudemire having exploratory surgery on his aching knee, I started to think how devastating it would be for the Suns if they lost him for the season. They’d go from a Western Conference title contender to a team hoping to make the playoffs.
An injury to one key player on a team not terribly deep can have that kind of dramatic impact.
Naturally, I started thinking about the Hawks, and what player would have that kind of detrimental impact on their season if he were to go down with a season-ending injury. They’ve got an abundance of forwards but aren’t particularly deep elsewhere.
So who can they least afford to lose this season?
