6686 Sports News on November 13 According to a report from Shams today, Clippers star Bill suffered a hip fracture and will undergo surgery and be reimbursed for the season.
Later, the US media ClutchPoints updated its social media and published an article talking about Bill's injury: Bradley Bill always seems to be unlucky.
After only playing in 6 games this year, he needed surgery due to a hip fracture, causing the season to be canceled early. Looking back in July 2022, Bill signed a five-year, $251 million maximum salary contract with the Wizards. He was 29 years old at the time and had averaged 30+ points per game in two consecutive seasons from 2019 to 2021. But the cloud of injury always hangs over him. Since 2022, he has missed a large number of games due to injury every season.
If the remaining schedule of this season is included, he only participated in 112 of the 328 possible games... This means that from 2022 to 2026, he missed 66% of the team's games. For reference, here are the absence rates of several other injury-prone stars since 2022:
Leonard: Missed 36% of games
Embid: Missed 49% of games
Ben Simmons: Missed 56.1% of games
Bill currently has a two-year, $10.9 million contract with the Clippers - he is no longer the $50 million man he was. However, injuries continue to come one after another, and he continues to miss games...Given the 6-9 month recovery period, we will not see Bill on the court again until the 2026-27 season, when he will be 33 years old.
