- He underwent core muscle surgery in early February 2026 and was expected to be out until the playoffs, per The Athletic initial reporting. This suggested a return window focused on postseason play rather than the regular season.[1]
- By March 2026, multiple outlets indicated his recovery remained on track with hopes of a playoff return, though specifics about exact timing varied as recovery progressed, with optimism tempered by the nature of core injuries.[2]
- In late March 2026, reports noted McBride was nearing a return, participating in scrimmages and even taking part in pregame routines, signaling continued progress toward game-ready status.[4]
- By April 2026, post-regular-season updates suggested management of expectations for his early playoff impact due to residual pain and the demands of a complete recovery, implying a cautious ramp rather than immediate heavy usage at the outset of the postseason.[3]
