Jarrett Allen on his finger injuries: I couldn't even clap for teammates on the bench

“Everything I do on the court, I couldn't do,” Allen said to reporters. “Even on the bench, trying to clap for teammates, I literally had to clap with my wrist to try to make it work. So I was struggling there for a while.” Allen explained that his first injury occurred in the second game of the season, spraining his right finger in Brooklyn on October 24, and “it's been bothering me since.” The left ring finger fracture happened five days after that, on the road in Boston. “I've basically been playing with two hurt fingers on two different hands for the past month before I sat out,” Allen said. “At this point, it's just been recovery, trying to make sure that I can get back in shape, make sure that I don't re-injure it and set myself back even further. So, it's just been a lot of conditioning, a lot of waiting, just a lot of trying to get ready to play again.”
