The NBA’s 2015-16 All-Injured Team

February 5th, 2016 by Zach Buckley Leave a reply »
It's an honor and a curse, one that's unfortunately easy to hand out every season.

The injury bug never takes a break during the NBA calendar, and it strikes players at every point of the game's hierarchy. It has seemingly spared more stars in this campaign compared to recent ones—Kevin Durant, Paul George, Carmelo Anthony, Chris Bosh and Kobe Bryant just last season—but almost every club has been without a key contributor at some point.

Which is why we have enough talent to go two-deep at each position on the 2015-16 All-Injured Team.

Eligibility was only extended to players either currently sidelined by a significant injury (think: multiweek recovery, at least) or those who have appeared in less than 75 percent of their team's games. From there, players were selected to either the first or second teams based on their individual statistics, team impact and overall recognition.

It's hard to congratulate anyone for being on this list, so consider these as "get well soon" (or "welcome back") cards to our favorite ballers.
