This is why I love Celebrini and why he’ll forever be top tier at what he does. This kind of wholistic approach to returning from injury is HUGE for keeping an injury from going from a one time absence to a repeated couple weeks here, couple weeks there absence because they tried to return a player to the court in the shortest amount of time possible.
