Durability Story · Watch

KaVontae Turpin's durability file isn’t one dramatic injury — it’s a pattern. The same shoulder themes keep resurfacing. Evidence check: injury reports across 3 different seasons; 2 games missed in the last three (2025: 2); 2025 was the rough one at 2 missed; longest on-report absence ran 2 weeks in 2025 (Wk 5–6); reinjury band sits at High. The news desk has been quieter lately, so the structured history is doing most of the talking.

For fantasy, KaVontae 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.
