Can anyone tell me why it's taking so long to get him back? Is this a normal timeframe? I have very high hopes for him and believe in him more than any of our young guys.
The league rule for covid recovery is 10 days away from the team and negative tests. Depending on his viral load, he could still be testing positive even if he's asymptomatic. this has been happening quite a bit during the pandemic.
I really like Nas but on this roster I have no hopes of him getting any serious PT. It's garbage time all season for him unless there are a rash of injuries or a major consolidation trade.
Yes, we know he has Coronavirus but is it normal for him to be out this long from it? Seems like it's been quite a while.
Hasn't camp been going on for a while? I thought he wasn't coming to that either. Feels like it's been a month or more.
I think it was the 7th when it was reported a player had COVID. So we are at day 11 since then. He needs to get a positive test I believe, then will have to practice at least two days alone before he can join the team. I am guessing it will be another week or so before they see him.
The gym has been open to full team workouts for 9 days and they had individual workouts for 2 days before that. There was no report on how often Nas was coming in before camp started for voluntary individual workouts.
Like others, I'm assuming he's out with COVID19 and is likely to return this week. He's the 12th man, so it's a non-factor anyway unless we keep getting blown out.
It's not uncommon for it to last 4-6 weeks. Then he needs multiple negative tests because of so many false negatives.
