Nic Claxton’s health concerns not an issue: ‘I think that’s behind him’
Prior to Friday night’s game against the Timberwolves, Steve Nash said he doesn’t see Nic Claxton’s health as something to monitor moving forward. Claxton, who returned against the Timberwolves for the first time since late October, will only be judged on “his fitness and performances.”
“No. I think that’s behind him,” said Steve Nash on Claxton’s health posing any future monitoring. “It’s a matter of adaptation to the demands and his fitness and performances will be judged going forward. We believe in Nic and we’re happy that he’s back. It’s just a matter of him getting it going again.”
The Nets have never discussed the nature of Claxton’s illness other than to call it “non-COVID.”
