While a coach’s injury during a playoff season isn’t ideal, it’s not the worst thing that could happen. If a star player was injured, that would obviously be more detrimental to the team’s chances of winning the season. But even still, it’s not fun for the players or the coach to have to worry about another thing on top of trying to take home the trophy.

Luckily, assistant coach Micah has also been with the team for three years (the same three seasons as Chris), so he has a solid rapport with the team. And because of his funny and charismatic post-game interviews, he’s actually been dubbed the “Ted Lasso of the NBA,” so we’re sure that fans would at least be entertained by his sideline coaching.

Ideally, however, Chris will be right there coaching on the court. Sources have said that he’d be on crutches at the very least, but it’s more likely he’d have to watch from the locker room and communicate to Micah on the bench.

"Essentially, he would be like the maestro pulling the puppet strings, and I'd be like Pinocchio, the frontman, but he would tell me what to do and what to say,” Micah told KFAN Radio (via Fox 9). “Unless there comes a time when I act like I don't hear him and I want to try something.”

Hopefully, all goes well with Chris’s surgery, but we’ll likely have a more accurate update after as doctors figure out the proper course of treatment.
