Conor McGregor revealed an ACL injury from his UFC 329 loss to Max Holloway and will require knee surgery and extensive rehab, with Dana White warning it will be a long comeback and timelines for a return are unclear; despite earlier posts claiming readiness to fight, the UFC is weighing when (or if) McGregor can return amid his recent string of injuries and losses.
Garrett Crochet has been diagnosed with a low-grade lat strain and will resume throwing only after symptoms subside, delaying his return as he has been out since April 26 with shoulder inflammation. With multiple pitchers on the injured list and a potential 60-day IL move for roster relief, a comeback within three weeks appears unlikely.
Logan Paul revealed he had surgery to repair a torn triceps and shared photos of a long forearm-to-elbow scar, joking about a quick comeback despite a six-month recovery window; he was injured during a WWE World Tag Team Championship match, and Bron Breakker is expected to fill in as he recovers.
Logan Paul underwent awake surgery to repair a torn triceps suffered during WWE SNME. Doctors estimate a six-month recovery, but Paul says he expects a much faster return, joking he’ll be back in a couple weeks with a Prime shake.

Detroit Tigers pitcher Tarik Skubal could return sooner than expected from elbow surgery after doctors used a NanoScope, a less invasive procedure that agent Scott Boras says should shorten rehab and allow him to regain strength without starting from scratch, potentially trimming the usual two-to-three month timeline.
OG Anunoby left Game 2 with a right hamstring issue; an MRI will determine if it’s a mild tweak or a more serious strain. In the best case (Grade 1), he could miss 1-2 games and potentially return in a couple of weeks. A Grade 2 tear would imply a 6-8 week absence and possible end to the playoff run, depending on MRI findings and series progress.
Luka Dončić gave his first update since suffering a hamstring strain, reaffirming an initial eight-week return window and saying he’s progressing daily but not cleared for full-contact; with eight weeks from early April landing around late May, a return for the Thunder series appears unlikely, and any comeback will depend on his ongoing progress and lack of setbacks.
Francisco Lindor was placed on the Mets’ 10-day injured list with a left calf strain and will wear a walking boot for about a week, with a full re-evaluation in three weeks. If cleared in mid‑May, he would need roughly a week of activities plus rehab games to rejoin the lineup by late May, though the exact timeline remains uncertain. The Mets, off to a slow start at 9-17, will rely on Ronny Mauricio at short in Lindor’s absence, as Lindor’s earlier hamate surgery and subpar early-season numbers add to the challenge.
Lourdes Gurriel Jr. could rejoin the Diamondbacks this weekend after tearing his ACL last Sept., with manager Torey Lovullo signaling a near return. He’s been ramping up in Arizona, walking and doubling in four plate appearances with Double-A Amarillo and then homering in the next game, suggesting a quicker-than-expected recovery that could see him in the outfield (not just as DH) as the team weighs his workload, potentially for a weekend matchup against his former team, the Blue Jays.
Jayson Tatum remains undecided about returning this season from an Achilles rupture, weighing how his reintegration would fit Boston’s current chemistry, his health, and the Celtics’ playoff and deadline plans.

Joe Burrow, the Bengals' star quarterback, is recovering from a severe turf toe injury requiring surgery, with an estimated minimum recovery time of 12 weeks.

The likelihood of his return this season remains uncertain and considered a long shot.
Charles Oliveira, after a knockout loss at UFC 317, plans to return to fighting before the end of the year, targeting a fight against Max Holloway in November, despite considering a rematch with the new lightweight champion. He has been advised to rest for six months but is eager to return sooner.
Joel Embiid participated in practice and will join the team on their road trip, but there is still no clear timeline for his return from a knee injury. The team is being cautious and keeping potential return dates close to the chest, with conflicting reports on when he might be back. The Sixers are in a tight battle for playoff positioning, and Embiid's return would significantly boost their chances. The team is preparing for upcoming games without a clear indication of when their star player will be back on the court.
An MRI on Steph Curry's right ankle showed "positive news," with no structural damage reported, and he is expected to return in 7 to 10 days, similar to Devin Booker's timeline. The Warriors are awaiting an official update on his condition, but there is optimism that his absence will not be lengthy. Despite Curry's injury, the team remains confident in its depth and ability to perform well in his absence.
