Al Jefferson MRI shows no structural damage, but he’ll still miss time

The MRI showed no structural damage in right calf after Al Jefferson hobbled out of Wednesday’s home loss to the Sacramento Kings.

While he will obviously miss some time before returning to the lineup, it doesn’t look like an extended period.

“No damage. They couldn’t tell what was going on with it. Just a lot of pain,” Jefferson said in a brief interview before a doctor’s appointment.
