Nets say LeVert could return from foot injury this season

However, the Nets expect that LeVert will be able to make a return to the court this season after tests on Tuesday morning revealed "no fractures and only moderate ligament damage", per team orthopedist Dr. Martin O'Malley.

"While the optics of this injury may have appeared to be more severe, surgery will not be required".

Following Monday's game, Atkinson called LeVert "the heart and soul of our program" during a brief postgame media session.

The injury occurred just before halftime when LeVert attempted to block Minnesota guard Josh Okogie's shot as he drove to the basket.

LeVert, who battled foot injuries in college at MI before emerging as a first-round pick, had been the Nets' best player during their promising start. He had 10 points, five rebounds and four assists Monday.
