Reggie & Jake Practiced Today


Recommended Posts

Rumors of the end of Reggie's season appear to be greatly exaggerated. GT reports that Reggie practiced with the team today, as did Jake. Neither participated in scrimmages. But that's still better than the rumor that Reggie's season was over due to not bouncing back from mono. Apparently Reggie's mono was not the most severe, and neither was Jake's concussion.

I doubt that either Jake or Reggie will play against UB Tuesday.

KD confirmed on today's Big Time Sports show that Jake is definitely out for the Bulls (still hopes for him on Friday), but he also said Reggie was having another MRI tomorrow and if his spleen is not enlarged he will probably play some tomorrow night.

My understanding is that Jake has been at practices but not taking part in any activities that could include contact, such as scrimmaging. That's consistent with someone who still has symptoms of a concussion. There's no harm in practicing things like shooting. But you don't want to take any risk of another blow to the head while still experiencing symptoms. The only way he plays at the Q is if all the symptoms have cleared up and a physician signs off on his recovery, which from a mild concussion generally takes "several weeks to several months." Thursday's game comes 3 weeks and 1 day after he suffered the concussion in Buffalo.
