    I'm hoping he can test out as soon as Russell, but we will see.

    I want to see more Reaves.

    if anyone got it from reaves, it was most likely after the game when they were all celebrating together and not at the shootaround

    Yesterday would have been a great time to have had him available. Riding high with confidence and same with teammates having in him. Down other ball handling guards and per unsubstantiated rumor on this site was going to start last night. That short handed I bet he would have at times had the green light to have been handling the ball more and playmaking more. Damn!!!

    Sound of crickets chirping. Hope the bug is not getting him bad … he could be affected for awhile once cleared to play. Dwight clearly didn’t feel able and THT too … less than swell, simply from the period of no activity even if not from any lingering effects.

    Reaves not playing is a drag, i really look forward to him playing, he plays the game beautifully and plays with a lot of energy.

    He tested positive on Dec. 17th. We should be getting this guy back soon unless he’s having complications.

    I check in every few hours to see if Austin has cleared protocols yet but sound of crickets chirping unfortunately. That bug could really be kicking his butt and no way to know. Hits that incredible game winner and then likely got a large load from all the celebratory contact and proximity for the next half hour, from everyone that had it on the team who didn’t even know it yet. Son of a B!!

    Really looking forward to the kid’s return. I’m so glad the team and the FO are now behind him and can see the great attitude and ability he brings to the table. He deserves to play a big role this season. He’s showed he can fill it.
