"Really need the team to confirm/deny something in here. It's sloppy communication when the public understands the point. Repair or reconstruct Reconstruction (use a graft to make a completely new ligament) is the gold standard and what I expect was done. Repair (ie the BEAR using a scaffold to directly repair the torn ends) is a newer technique that is still in the early stages and not typically done on elite athletes. But it does lean towards earlier return to sport So was it actually a reconstruction or did he have a repair and we might expect him back in the summer/early fall"
