Derrick Jones Jr.
LA Clippers · F
Injury risk score: 47/100 (Medium).
Current status: not on today’s NBA injury report.
Why Derrick Jones Jr.’s risk score is 47
- Injury History (+27): 9 recorded injury events, 2 in the past 18 months, 1 severe
- Recurring Injury (+8): Shoulder has been the site of 2 separate injury episodes — a recurring, chronic-pattern concern rather than isolated bad luck
- Return to Play (-1): 7 healthy games since returning from his knee injury — each 5 lowers the score a little (up to 8 points) during the first year back
- Contract Year (×1.06): In a contract year (role-tier contract) — more incentive to play through a minor issue rather than rest it: can mean a monster season, but also raises the odds of a nagging injury compounding
The injury risk score (0–100) is built from a player’s injury history — how often, how recently and how seriously he has been hurt — plus a body part that keeps failing, age, a recent return from injury, and his contract situation. 70+ is High risk, 40–69 Medium, under 40 Low.
