He has covered athletics at the University of Michigan and is now serving as an Associate Editor, Chicago Bulls beat writer, and Michigan football reporter at ClutchPoints.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">NBA</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>LaMarcus Aldridge had a long career in the NBA, and he played with a lot of great players over the years. One of the best players that he played with was Damian Lillard, and the two were together on the Portland Trail Blazers. Obviously, neither of them are on the Trailblazers now as Aldridge is retired and Lillard plays for the Milwaukee Bucks, but they had some special years on that team.</p><p>Aldridge spent 16 years in the NBA, and he played for the Trail Blazers for nine years. Lillard has been in the NBA for 12 years, and he spent 11 seasons in Portland. This upcoming season will be his second with the Bucks.</p><p>Damian Lillard’s first three seasons in the NBA were the last three seasons that LaMarcus Aldridge played for the Trail Blazers, so the two of them only spent three years together. Aldridge <a href="https://youtu.be/6L9aorWYDts?t=3099" rel="noopener">admitted that he thinks about what could’ve been</a> if he had played there longer with Lillard, and also CJ McCollum.</p><p>“Every now and then I’d be like ‘damn if I was still there it would be dope to be rocking with them two,'” Aldridge said during an episode of the <i>Knuckleheads Podcast.</i> “Now that they’re mature and they’re at this level and we could kind of like done it together. But my point is I think I would’ve stifled the growth a little bit because I was so ball dominant when I was there. Like Dame and I played well together and he got to get off. But when CJ would get off he would come in off the bench and then he would get his bag.”</p><h2><b>LaMarcus Aldridge has mixed feelings on leaving Portland</b></h2><p>There is definitely a part of LaMarcus Aldridge that has some regrets about leaving the Trail Blazers when they had talented guys like Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum on the outside. That trio could’ve done some big things, but Aldridge also thinks that maybe it was for the best. Would Lillard and McCollum have grown into the players they are today if Aldridge had stayed in Portland? We don’t know.</p><p>“So I don’t know if it would have ever gotten to the peak together with CJ being as good as he is now,” Aldridge continued. “But of course I did think like if I was still there and they had me on the inside and they’re doing their thing on the outside we would’ve made a crazy run but I also feel they all grew once I left because they had some growing pains.”</p><p>When Alridge left the Trail Blazers, his next stop was with the San Antonio Spurs, and he spent a good amount of time there before making one final move. He finished off his career with the Brooklyn Nets.</p><p>McCollum, like Aldridge and Lillard, also moved on from Portland. He has spent the last three years with the New Orleans Pelicans, and that is where he is now.</p><p>The trio of McCollum, Lillard and Aldridge in Portland could’ve been something special in the long run, but we’ll never know what it would’ve been.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The San Antonio Spurs <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/victor-wembanyama-less-spurs-gets-doomed-by-3rd-quarter-woes-again-brutal-loss-mavs" rel="noopener">have struggled mightily</a>, but despite some ups and downs, Wembanyama has <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-news-lebron-james-drops-ultimate-praise-on-spurs-special-talent-victor-wembanyama" rel="noopener">displayed superstar potential</a>. Wembanyama is still improving, though, and former NBA All-Star LaMarcus Aldridge <a href="https://twitter.com/ClutchPoints/status/1740059486067306863" rel="noopener">recently gave important advice</a> to the Spurs phenom, via ClutchPoints.</p><p>“He is so skilled. I would just break his sh*t down… Get a move that if it’s the fourth quarter, you’re gonna go to it. My sh*t was always my fade, beginning of the game, end of the game,” Aldridge said, per SHOWTIME Basketball. “It helps you stop thinking so f**king much.”</p><p>Aldridge believes that Wembanyama would benefit from consistently working on one or two specific moves. Many great players throughout the history of the NBA have relied on a specific shot that is nearly unstoppable. Kareem Adbul-Jabbar had his skyhook, while Dirk Nowitzki leaned on his one-legged fading jumper.</p><p>As Aldridge stated, he also relied on a fadeaway shot. Aldridge continued by discussing Victor Wembanyama’s skill set and his current moves.</p><p>“I feel like he’s so skilled, he’s like, got 18 different moves in his head and he’s playing too fast right now,” Aldridge continued. “Slow yourself down and get two moves to go to.”</p><h2><b>Victor Wembanyama’s performance in rookie season</b></h2><p>Wembanyama is currently averaging 18.3 points per game. He’s also recording 10.6 rebounds and a league-leading 3.0 blocks per game.</p><p>His numbers are solid, but he’s looking to develop further shooting efficiency. Wembanyama is shooting just 43.3 percent from the field and 27.8 percent from beyond the arc as of this story’s writing. Although his overall numbers are strong, Victor Wembanyama could easily be averaging well over 20 points per contest by finding the bottom of the net on a more consistent basis.</p><p>Perhaps Wembanyama will take Aldridge’s advice and start utilizing it in games. Relying on one or two specific unstoppable moves could lead to All-Star caliber numbers for the rookie.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Aldridge, who played for the Portland Trail Blazers, San Antonio Spurs, and Brooklyn Nets during his career, <a href="https://twitter.com/aldridge_12/status/1641851400513519637" rel="noopener">shared his retirement message</a> on Twitter.</p><p>“In the words of TB12, you only get one big, emotional retirement… so, on that note…I’m thankful for all the memories, family and friends I made throughout my career. It was one hell of a ride and I enjoyed every min! 12,” Aldridge wrote on Twitter.</p><p>Aldridge, 37, enjoyed an excellent career.</p><p>He began his NBA tenure in 2006 with the Trail Blazers, and immediately flashed signs of stardom. However, he didn’t make his first All-Star team until the 2011-2012 campaign with Portland. He went on to make five consecutive All-Star teams.</p><p>LaMarcus Aldridge ended up in San Antonio with the Spurs in 2015, where he would continue to find success. He remained in San Antonio until the 2020-21 season, when he was ultimately traded to the Nets. Aldridge played in just 52 <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nets-news-lamarcus-aldridge-bold-statement-after-brooklyn-signing" rel="noopener">total games with the Nets</a>, 47 of which came in 2021-2022.</p><p>LaMarcus <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nets-news-kevin-durant-brooklyn-hit-lamarcus-aldridge-setback-after-mri" rel="noopener">Aldridge endued injury trouble</a> during his time in Brooklyn, and did not play during the 2022-23 campaign. His best years unquestionably came with Portland and San Antonio.</p><p>Overall, Aldridge finishes his career with a points per game average of 19.1 and total rebounds per game average of 8.1 He should garner Hall of Fame consideration as well. Aldridge was one of the better big men in the NBA when on the floor. He held his own on defense, consistently crashed the boards, and was certainly an intimidating offensive presence.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He announced his retirement from the NBA on April 15, 2021 due to an irregular heartbeat, which was an abrupt end to Aldridge’s storied career. But he got medical clearence to return to the court just a few months later, and rejoined the Brooklyn Nets for the 2021-22 season.</p><p>Aldridge provided a nice change of pace off Brooklyn’s bench last season when he played, and showed in the process he still has something to offer in what will be his age 37 season next year. Aldridge ended up getting phased out of Brooklyn’s rotation along the way, but he should be able to find a new team that needs big man help next season.</p><p>Aldridge is still chasing his elusive first championship ring, which will probably impact his decision-making when it comes to choosing his next home. There are certainly some teams out there looking for big man help, so here are three teams that should look to add Aldridge to their bench for the upcoming season.</p><p><i><b>Watch NBA games LIVE with fuboTV (<a href="https://www.fubo.tv/stream/nba/?irad=356361&amp;irmp=492408">click for free trial</a>)</b></i></p><h2><b>3 teams that should sign LaMarcus Aldridge</b></h2><p><b>3. Golden State Warriors</b></p><p>If LaMarcus Aldridge wants to win a championship before he calls it a career, it wouldn’t be a bad idea for him to sign with the Golden State Warriors. The Warriors just won the 2022 NBA Finals after all, and they may be looking to add another big man to shore up their rotation. Aldridge may just be the perfect fit.</p><p>The Warriors are hoping to get James Wiseman back after he missed the entire 2021-22 season, and they re-signed their starting center from last season, Kevon Looney, in free agency already. Aldridge can play both center and power forward, and he could be the final piece to that rotation for the Warriors.</p><p>Aldridge is still a fantastic scorer from inside the arc, and he shot 30.4 percent on threes last season, which isn’t all that bad considering how bad of a shooter Aldridge was earlier in his career. Golden State needs another scorer off their bench to fill in their roster, and Aldridge might be the perfect fit for them next season.</p><p><b>2. New York Knicks</b></p><p>The Knicks could be blowing up their bench shortly, but even if they don’t, they could still use a player of LaMarcus Aldridge’s caliber. New York has a pretty subpar center rotation of Mitchell Robinson, Isaiah Hartenstein, and Jericho Sims right now that needs work. Aldridge could be the answer.</p><p>Robinson is a solid two-way center who will start no matter what, but Aldridge would easily have a spot on the bench for the Knicks. He’s a solid scoring option inside the three-point line for a Knicks team that has a lot of shooters on their roster currently. That change of pace in Aldridge could be just what the bench needs.</p><p>Hartenstein is a bit of a better defender than Aldridge, but when New York would need an offensive spark, Aldridge would be the guy to turn to. He may not be the most conventional option for New York, but they could <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/jazz-rumors-donovan-mitchell-trade-to-knicks-gets-critical-update-after-done-deal-reports/">swing a big trade</a> over the next few days that would shake up their roster. If that’s the case, it would make a lot of sense for them to look into bringing Aldridge in on a cheap deal.</p><p><b>1. Boston Celtics</b></p><p>The Boston Celtics may have the deepest roster of any team in the NBA right now, but their one area of need is probably another big man for their bench. They usually run a double big starting lineup with Al Horford and Robert Williams III, but after that there isn’t a lot of support for them on the bench. That’s where LaMarcus Aldridge could come in and help out.</p><p>The Celtics have a lot of outside scorers on their roster, and don’t have a true paint presence aside from Williams. Aldridge could offer a bit of a unique skillset off the bench for Boston were he to end up there. His inside scoring would help open up the perimeter for the C’s, and keep their offense flowing when it goes through one of its patented cold stretches.</p><p>If Boston could fill in this final hole on their roster, they would have to be title favorites heading into the 2022-23 season. Brining in Aldridge would fill their only real hole on the roster as of now, and his offensive skillset is exactly what the team would be looking to incorporate into their gameplan. The Celtics came up short in the Finals last season, but adding Aldridge could be the final move that helps them win it all next season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Brooklyn Nets fans have gotten used to <i>sharing </i>their home floor with Knicks fans in the past. At times over the years it’s felt like there was a fairly even split at Barclays Center in terms of allegiance.</p><p>It makes sense. The Knicks didn’t have to share this town for the better part of the last hundred years. Now they do. And tonight, it was the “Brooklyn Brigade” who made their presence felt at MSG.</p><p>Cam Thomas helped lead the Nets to a ridiculous 28-point comeback in an otherwise hostile environment.</p><p>There was no Kyrie Irving because the game was in New York. Even though it was a Nets road game, he’s still ineligible to play here, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nets-news-nyc-mayor-eric-adams-struggling-with-vaccine-decision-massive-implications-kyrie-irving/">at least for now</a>.

Thank goodness for Kevin Durant and whatever role he played in making sure Cam Thomas is in this town.</p><p><a href="https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2953512-inside-kevin-durants-role-in-brooklyn-nets-james-harden-trade" rel="noopener">Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report noted the following on Tuesday:</a></p><blockquote>“But Durant’s strong connection with Steve Nash from their days with the Golden State Warriors played a critical role in Nash’s being hired as head coach. Durant is consulted on every major decision. He was instrumental in Brooklyn’s drafting Cam Thomas with the No. 27 pick in July, sources said, and Durant reiterated his desire for Thomas to remain with the Nets past this deadline.”</blockquote><p>And man did that pay off.</p><p>Thomas, the 27th overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft out of LSU,  had 21 points, four rebounds and two assists vs. the Knicks. The Nets defeated the Knicks, 111-106.</p><p>Thomas did most of his damage in the final quarter going seven of 10 for 16 points. The 6’4” guard born in Yokosuka, Japan surprised plenty of onlookers for the nationally televised battle of the boroughs. But he surprised precisely nobody in his own locker room, as his Nets teammates have already seen him ooze confidence throughout the season. They’ve already seen him hit overtime daggers.</p><p>Remember this floater he drained with 1.4 seconds to go vs. the San Antonio Spurs?</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Cam Thomas go-ahead floater gives the Nets a 121-119 lead over the Spurs with 1.4 seconds to go. <a href="https://t.co/hPgNzieO3u" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/hPgNzieO3u</a></p><p>— Kristian Winfield #NFTAllStar (@Krisplashed) <a href="https://twitter.com/Krisplashed/status/1480261593019695105?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">January 9, 2022</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Wednesday, he added to his collection of game winners with this bomb:</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Let’s call it Madison Cam Thomas Garden </p><p> <a href="https://t.co/muSv2bVcwF" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/muSv2bVcwF</a></p><p>— Nets Nation (@NetsNationCP) <a href="https://twitter.com/NetsNationCP/status/1494146968771338240?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">February 17, 2022</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Ice cold, Killa Cam. For the Knicks, the defeat marks the third time in their last seven games they’ve blown a 20-point lead. They’re in some organizational disarray. Unlike the Nets who are waiting on Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant, Ben Simmons, and Joe Harris to get back on the floor, the Knicks are basically at full strength. They are rudderless in a much deeper way than the Nets, who recently lost 11 straight, ever were.</p><p>Right now there is simply no rivalry between these teams. Knicks President Leon Rose may wish there were a second trade deadline. He may have missed his chance to either improve, or go tank mode by standing pat last week.</p><p>Newcomer Seth Curry had another big game. It was his second as a member of the Nets. Curry said he’s noticed a positive vibe among his new teammates. Before the game, coach Steve Nash talked about how he expects to lean on Curry. He thinks the Duke product will have a bigger role on his new team that he had on the Sixers.</p><p>Curry responded to the extra responsibility and hit a game high six for nine from SoHo, to go with a game high six assists. He was also a game high +27, plus-minus. As LaMarcus Aldridge said after the game, Curry provides “instant offense.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Cam Thomas has taken over chants of “Brooklyn” at MSG</p><p> <a href="https://t.co/TRa2ZjPRJM" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/TRa2ZjPRJM</a></p><p>— Nets Nation (@NetsNationCP) <a href="https://twitter.com/NetsNationCP/status/1494144206398500865?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">February 17, 2022</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>But the night belonged to the rook.</p><p>“It was 16 on the clock,” said Thomas, recollecting the game’s biggest play, “so we just went in the backcourt, and then when I seen coach Steve tell ’em everybody flatten out I knew it was you know, one-on-one time, I just went to my go-to move, so glad it went in ’cause I was struggling tonight,” Thomas said.</p><p>Thomas finished just 1 of 5 from three but he hit the one he needed to most.</p><p>“It felt good when I stepped back, I was like ‘I got enough lift on it, it looked good.’ And thank god it went in and we got that win, for sho,” said Thomas after he helped put this one on ice.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Cam Thomas ranks some of his favorite game winners now… the <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/nets?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">#nets</a> rookie already has quite the collection. <a href="https://t.co/VASIBgL945" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/VASIBgL945</a></p><p>— DaveEarly (@DavidEarly) <a href="https://twitter.com/DavidEarly/status/1494156394391650305?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">February 17, 2022</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Thomas was asked where this game-winner ranks on his quickly expanding list. “It’s up there for sure ’cause it’s in the NBA, at the Garden, so definitely up there.

Aldridge said he doesn’t have to coach Thomas up too much because Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving take the lead on that.

According to the Nets coach, Aldridge is expected to be out for at least one more week:</p><blockquote>“LaMarcus will be out the rest of the trip,” Nash said, via <a href="https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/33193697/brooklyn-nets-g-james-harden-hand-upgraded-probable-tuesday-game-vs-phoenix-suns">Nick Friedell of ESPN</a>. “He’s got a little sprain. So we’ll reevaluate him after the trip.”</blockquote><p>Nash did say that Aldridge could return before the All-Star break on February 20th, although the Nets coach was anything but confident:</p><blockquote>“Hopefully we’ll see them before then,” Nash said. “But I couldn’t guarantee it. But I’m not there yet.”</blockquote><p>Nash also spoke about the other injuries on his squad, which includes James Harden and Kevin Durant. Harden, who is currently dealing with a right hand strain, has been <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nets-news-brooklyn-gets-massive-james-harden-injury-update-for-suns-showdown/">upgraded to probable</a> in the Nets’ Tuesday night marquee matchup against the Phoenix Suns.

They came out with energy and once led by 16 points, but it still came down to the wire. They’ll leave the capital with a 119-118 win in what felt like a playoff type atmosphere at Capital One Arena.</p><p>Kevin Durant dealing with an MCL sprain, is set to miss a month or more. KD missed his second game and as a native of the area, the chance to play in front of his home town fans. That leaves James Harden and Kyrie Irving as the Big 2 for the foreseeable future, as long as the game isn’t in Brooklyn. Then Harden will be the Big One.</p><p>The final possession was a frenzied scramble. Irving, who finished with a season high 30 points and 7 assists, hoisted a triple looking for a two-for-one. He missed but the Nets got the offensive rebound. James Harden drained some clock before driving where he was blocked by Wizards’ big Montrez Harrell. With 5 seconds left, down just one, Kyle Kuzma, who had just nailed a huge three to cut a four point Nets lead down to one, got another good look at what might have been a game winning triple but it rimmed out. Harrell tracked it and got it to former Nets guard Spencer Dinwiddie for one final heave which hit front rim and that was that. Brooklyn escaped.</p><p>“They had some good looks, it was scary at the end, but the basketball gods were on our side,” said the seven-time All-Star LaMarcus Aldridge. Keeping the ball out of Bradley Beal’s hands on the final play certainly helps your chances with those gods.</p><p>“I think we made just enough plays defensively to get the job done,” said coach Steve Nash after the win. “But I thought the defense, not that it was great, made just enough plays to win the game.”</p><p>“It was one of those gritty wins man,” said Aldridge to YES Network’s Michael Grady. Aldridge missed time recently with a sore foot. So how did his foot hold up?</p><p>“I felt good, got some work in yesterday, disappointed last game I had some mental break downs early and late so I was trying to be more focused tonight,” said Aldridge via YES.</p><p>LMA cracked the 20 point mark for the seventh time this year totaling 27 points, with 6 boards and 2 blocks. If you wanted to make a Big 3 joke with LMA in for KD, you probably wouldn’t be the first to make it after his explosion vs. Bradley Beal and company.</p><p>Aldridge carried the team down the stretch offensively. He had their final six points to seal it. Was it Kyrie Irving’s idea to throw him the ball or was Aldridge calling for it down the stretch?</p><p>“A little bit of Ky looking for me, a little bit of me asking for it finally, no disrespect, I felt like I had a smaller guy on me so I was just trying to get a look down there….it ended up working out for us.”</p><p>So who were these victims that weren’t big enough to slow Aldridge down? He took Kentavious Caldwell-Pope down on the block for a turnaround. On another possession, you can see it was number 33, Kyle Kuzma, on his hip for the turnaround baby bank.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">"A little bit of [Irving] looking for me, a little bit of me asking for it finally, no disrespect, I felt like I had a smaller guy on me so I was just trying to get a look down there….it ended up working out for us."</p><p>-Always classy LMA calls Kuzma too small, just not by name. <a href="https://t.co/VJv6xNwWu7" target="_blank">https://t.co/VJv6xNwWu7</a></p><p>— DaveEarly (@DavidEarly) <a href="https://twitter.com/DavidEarly/status/1484038863169413121?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">January 20, 2022</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p><a href="https://twitter.com/DavidEarly/status/1484038863169413121?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1484038863169413121%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fclutchpoints.com%2Fwp-admin%2Fpost.php%3Fpost%3D1616981action%3Dedit" rel="noopener">When Harrell next fouled</a> him, reaching for a steal, Aldridge calmly drained two massive free throws with 44 seconds remaining. After the timely stops coach Nash talked about, those freebies ended up being the game winners.</p><p>But this has to be some of the classiest and most polite trash talk we’ve heard so far this season. <i>No disrespect, but I had a smaller dude on me, and it was just time to go to work.</i> LMA put a footwork clinic in the low block and finished with his patented soft touch. He’d probably argue this wasn’t trash talk since he didn’t actually say anything to his victims, or even name them at all. But he’s simply stating facts that he had some smaller dudes on him in crunch time. But that’s why we’re qualifying this as some very classy smack. Sometimes saying a dude can’t guard you is all that needs to be said. That’s Larry Bird or Reggie Miller matter-of-fact level stuff.</p><p>LMA even gave a healthy ribbing to rookie teammate Day’Ron Sharpe. Sharpe has played well and earned a bigger role moving forwards. But he has tended to struggle with foul trouble and after the big win, Aldridge was asked if he gives advice to the freshman. “I was never as bad as him,” quipped the Texas native.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">"I was never as bad as him" 🤣 – LaMarcus Aldridge on Day'Ron Sharpe's rookie foul struggles <a href="https://t.co/CjGNMC3ZRV" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/CjGNMC3ZRV</a></p><p>— Nets Videos (@SNYNets) <a href="https://twitter.com/SNYNets/status/1484009703764111360?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">January 20, 2022</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p>LMA is one of the<a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/brooklyn-nets/stats" rel="noopener"> classiest players in the game.</a> And the Nets are thrilled he keeps turning out with big performances. He’s helped saved them in more than a handful of games now. He’s been the team’s most pleasant surprise this season, especially since he wasn’t even expected to play. At least, as much as a dude with over 20,000 career points can “surprise” you when he drains another clutch mid range shot. The Nets face his, and Patty Mills’ former team on Thursday night in San Antonio. Maybe LaAutomatic will have something to say about facing his former coach Gregg Popovich.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Despite being cleared to return to action and even featuring in a pair of games for the Nets this past week, Aldridge revealed a pretty worrying tidbit. The veteran big-man admitted that he’s still suffering from symptoms of COVID-19, despite being back in action for the Nets. According to <a href="https://twitter.com/NYPost_Lewis/status/1478760102463262727">Brian Lewis of the <i>NY Post</i></a>, Aldridge said that he’s still struggling with conditioning after his bout with the virus, stating that he’s “trying to feel normal again.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">LaMarcus Aldridge had headaches, body aches, fatigue when he had COVID.

Despite being cleared to return to game action, Aldridge attests that he’s still trying to get his “legs back” and his “wind back.”</p><p>While Aldridge is apparently not back to 100% from his bout with coronavirus, that didn’t seem to have a major impact on the minutes he logged in his previous two games. He sat out Monday night’s game against the Grizzlies, but was active against the Philadelphia 76ers and Los Angeles Clippers, logging 27 minutes and 20 minutes, respectively. The Nets will be hoping to get a similar number of minutes out of the 36-year-old on Wednesday night.</p><p>Last year, Aldridge retired from the NBA after experiencing an irregular heartbeat. Aldridge has played his entire NBA career with Wolff-Parkinson White disease, which causes a rapid heartbeat, but the sensation he experienced prior to his retirement was unlike any he’d felt before. He was cleared to return to the NBA this season and re-signed with the Nets on a one-year deal.</p><p> </p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
