Durability Story · Watch

Open Budda Baker's injury ledger and you keep seeing Knee, Ankle, and Hamstring. That repetition is the story. Evidence check: injury reports across 9 different seasons; 1 games missed in the last three (2025: 1); 2025 was the rough one at 1 missed; reinjury band sits at High. The news desk has been quieter lately, so the structured history is doing most of the talking.

For fantasy, Budda is startable but fragile: keep a handcuff or streaming backup ready when the next soft-tissue note lands.

Based on injury history + recent reporting. Not a medical diagnosis.
