Dru Smith
Miami Heat · G
Injury risk score: 68/100 (Medium).
Current status: not on today’s NBA injury report.
Why Dru Smith’s risk score is 68
- Injury History (+39): 20 recorded injury events, 12 in the past 18 months, 4 severe
- Recurring Injury (+15): Knee has been the site of 4 separate injury episodes — a recurring, chronic-pattern concern rather than isolated bad luck
- Contract Year (×1.06): Not yet in a contract year (fringe-tier contract), but still fighting for his next deal — same incentive to play through a minor issue rather than rest it: can mean a breakout season, but also 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.
