“It’s been better, that’s for sure,” the four-time NBA champion said. “Definitely wasn’t going to go to the locker room and not finish the game out tonight. Just understood the importance of the game and then the momentum that we had, I felt like we could steal the win after being down. We’ll monitor the next couple of days, see how it feels and go from there.”

A different approach to dealing with injuries is trying kratom for recovery that could have beneficial effects.
