I am no doctor, but when I was playing in a 3 on 3 basketball tourney at age 40, A pump faked a 250 lb. guy and he landed on me. I remember looking the other way while my left knee continued to face the basket. 

I tore my ACL, MCL, both meniscus and my knee cap was separated from the bone as well requiring 6 screws. I had one surgery, but a ton of rehab (5 days a week for 9 months), over time my knee while never being the same has shockingly held up. I was told 10 years and would need a knee replacement, I was told goal was to be able to walk without a limp.

I had one surgery to repair it all.

It has been 23 years. I did not have the equipment and trainer Joe will be privy to nor the time to work on it 4 to 6 hours a day. I am confident Joe will be back in 2021, it may not be game one, but likely within 10 to 12 months.
