MRI shows Brand's shoulder is healing

He's expected to be in uniform tomorrow vs. Indiana.  The article doesn't really go beyond that.  Whether or not he plays tomorrow remains to be seen.  Personally, I say keep him off the floor until after the all star break.

Sounds like a bump in the healing process only.  Given the type of injury and how a PF uses their shoulder expecting a linear, constantly getting better model for the healing of his shoulder is probably wishful thinking.  A little more time and rehab may be the safer way to go, rather than jumping in and playing again.  The word "healing" sounds like he's on the right track, but definitely not all the way there yet.
