Injury status

Reported Oct 24

OutKnee — Leg — BruiseEst. return Nov 2

Missi has been diagnosed with a left knee bone bruise and he will miss an extended period of time, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Missi currently has no official timetable for his return, but he appears likely to miss significant time. Derik Queen could be elevated into a starting role while Missi is sidelined, so make sure he's not floating around on your waiver wire. Missi doesn't offer enough upside to warrant holding onto in re-draft fantasy leagues.

How it's counted

Each situation shows this player's numbers in those games, with the difference from their full-season line in parentheses. The definition sits under each situation name. Situations overlap: one game can count in several.

True shooting is one shooting number that folds in threes and free throws; its differences are in points of TS%. Every final box score counts — there is no minutes cutoff. Fewer than 5 games reads as a small sample. These splits describe what happened. They do not prove the schedule caused it.
