Today, we take a look at the injuries that have plagued the teams in the Southeast Division. I apologize for the delay in getting this up, but naturally, there was a lot to cover around the league this week, so the 4th instalment of our look at injuries around the league was pushed back. Last Tuesday, we looked at the Central Division, where Detroit is the team that’s hurting the most from its injuries.
