Well I thought I did because you said it will be several weeks before Smith could move laterally. If he can't do that Kelsey wouldn't be saying he's ready to go.
Now I think everyone can agree he won't be at 100 percent but if he can't move laterally, then he wouldn't play at all, which is what I took your post as saying.
He's going to be a bit rusty and is game stamina will be shorter, so I'm not expecting a lot from him in the tournament. It is true these kind of ankle injuries take weeks to get over. Something Duke fans are going to notice, despite the ESPN hacks picking them for the final 4.
