Recovery Time and Absence from Competitions

According to the statement, Will Clyburn will be sidelined for no less than 10 weeks. This forced absence represents a significant loss for Virtus Bologna, who will have to do without their key player for an extended period. Treatment and recovery details will be defined in cooperation with the team’s medical staff.

What is the Plantar Fascia and What Does the Injury Entail?

The plantar fascia is a band of connective tissue that runs along the bottom of the foot, connecting the heel to the toes. When this fascia becomes inflamed or damaged, it causes a condition known as plantar fasciitis, which can result in severe pain, especially in the heel. Treatment for plantar fasciitis mainly involves rest, physical therapy, and, in some cases, the use of orthotics or surgical intervention.

Possible Recovery and Return to the Court

While the recovery time is estimated at 10 weeks, there is a possibility that Clyburn may return sooner, depending on the progress of the injury and the response to treatment. Virtus Bologna will closely monitor every stage of the recovery, with continuous assessment of the player’s physical condition. Fans and the team’s staff hope that the recovery process proceeds smoothly, allowing Clyburn to return to the court for the crucial matches of the season.
