Nic Claxton has now missed 13 straight games due to an undisclosed illness and although he says he’s feeling better, the 22-year-old knows he still a ways away from rejoining his teammates on the court.
“Yeah, I’m in the ramp-up stage right now. I’m reconditioning myself. I got sick, I lost a lot of weight,” Claxton told The Post at a Nets charity event in Brooklyn. “But I put the weight back on, and I’m feeling good and I’m hoping to be back within the next couple of weeks.”
Brian Lewis caught up with Nic Claxton in Red Hook where the 22-year-old was distributing turkeys and other meals to some of the 2,000+ families the Nets are helping this Thanksgiving.
