He missed 155 due to injury. 155/(155+547) = .22

in an 82 game season it would be expected that Tanev miss 18 games
LOL. No, injuries are random, they aren't like points - you can't project them forward, based on past results.

Do some guys play a style that makes them more likely to get hurt? Sure. But not to the extent implied by the quote.

Are some guys 'injury-prone'? Sure, there are probably some. But far fewer than the number labelled by fans who throw the term around at any player who sustains more than a single injury.
