"So, with all his travel and everything, it's not going to be like the minutes he was playing consistently, and it's just a matter of what he's gone through. But don't expect it to be more than one game. Once he plays tonight, he will play and then see how he feels."
"Yeah, I think it's been his consistency, And going back to the people that he's got, that he has around consistently with everything in regard to his body. Like, he works with Courtney [Brown] and she's been amazing with him, helped him to get through all those steps to work on his body. Same with Juwan [Howard] and the rest of the medical and performance team, help him to understand how important being routine oriented is."
Nic Claxton returned after missing two games and was placed on a temporary minutes restriction tied to recent travel rather than injury. The coaching staff expects the limitation to be short, assessing Claxton after he plays to gauge how he feels. Day'Ron Sharpe started in Claxton's absence and contributed energy, physicality and steadiness, producing solid numbers and noticeable impact. Sharpe's improvement stems from dedicated conditioning, routine work and support from performance staff, including Courtney Brown and Juwan Howard. The frontcourt rotation has become a key balancing act dependent on both players remaining healthy and engaged.
