Perhaps the main problem with Tyreke as of now are the injuries he's playing through. During the summer if you remember, Tyreke was invited to try out for Team USA, but after spraining his ankle, wasn't able to and eventually was cut. He has sprained his ankle a few times since then (and not from wicked Derrick Rose crossovers), and has since changed his shoes to add more support.
More worrisome than the ankles however has been the fact that Tyreke has Plantar Fasciitis, a nagging foot injury that tends to get worse the more you do stuff like run and jump. Running and jumping is kind of a big deal for Tyreke and most NBA players. Last year, Joakim Noah had to miss 18 games due to a severe case, because often the only way to let the condition heal is to simply rest, a luxury not easily afforded in an 82 game season. Evans went to a foot specialist at the behest of his agent yesterday, and says he will continue to play through the pain, as he did in his college year in Memphis (he also said he didn't have it last year, so this has come and gone with him before).
