An alternate explanation someone floated explanation for the length of the migrane DNPs was that RJ was concusssd.

Idk if that’s right nor if it explains his play after returning, but I find myself rooting that way; him shooting civil war numbers is not what I’m trying to see without extenuating circumstances.

I really wonder if a bunch of NBA players have been getting Covid and the teams are just keeping it under wraps because they don’t want the league to get involved or the media to find out.

I mean, people aren’t even talking about Covid anymore and in other states is also much different and really a non issue compared to NYC.
