BDS Notes:
For the second week in a row we'll see Maarten Paes out of commission with an upper leg injury. I was told following last Saturday's game against Portland that it is more of a hamstring injury than anything else. His timetable for a return is probably not one many fans want to hear, with the earliest projections looking like sometime in September.
Also, this is another week down with no real progress to report on Paxton Pomykal. The tiny bit of information I've been able to piece together on him is that he may be available again come September.
Austin on the other hand only really has Brandon Vazquez on their list. He's been out for a few weeks now after suffering a knee injury that will keep him out until 2026.
