andre iguodala probably tore harmstring

Wow. Anyone know the timeline of a torn hamstring? I know they can linger a long time.

New projection for the draft pick: 14. Just outside the playoffs.

I tore a hamstring a few years ago and it was several weeks before I could even start any kind of real physical activity again. If you tear a hammy no way you are coming back any time soon
 
Latest: not torn, but strained. Out "indefinitely" FWIW.

Andre Iguodala's MRI exam showed a strained left hamstring. He's out indefinitely, according to the team.
 
A few recent examples of strained hamstrings:

Manu Ginobili (Jan 2013) - 10 days
Chris Paul (Jan 2012) - 11 days
Corey Maggette (Jan 2012) - 37 days (either more severe or another injury as he was coming back?)
 
From contra costa times

The team did not release any details about the grade of the injury or a timetable for his return. But no surgery means the muscle did not tear completely from the bone and a months-long recovery process was avoided.

A strain of the hamstring, a group of three muscles that run along the back of your thigh, does mean he tore at least one of the muscles. But it’s nothing the R.I.C.E. method can’t cure.

Internet says a week to 6 months to recover...depending on grade (which GS did not reveal).


The Barcelona forward Lionel Messi has said he will work 'full time' on recovering from a hamstring injury that is expected to keep him out for six to eight weeks
