Tom Orsborn: Rudy Gay on helping Wall, Cousins & Nwaba overcome Achilles injuries: “I just want people to do well and have control of their careers. (It’s) an injury where people have written you off and told you you can’t come back or it’s career-ending. But if I can do it, they can do it.”
Salman Ali: PJ Tucker on Rockets defense: “We got a lot of good scorers, a lot of good shooters… But now this year. The way this team is set up, we got a lot of guys who can really guard too.” Talks about David Nwaba and Sterling Brown among the good defenders.
David, it’s been quite some time since that December game against the Spurs, but what do you recall from that night? When was the moment you knew that something was wrong? David Nwaba: “I knew once it happened, I knew what was wrong. It was a loud pop and I just went down to the floor. I looked back to see if anybody was there and who kicked me, nobody was there. So I knew, I knew exactly what kind of injury it was.”
How has the rehab process been for you overall? David Nwaba: “It’s been pretty hard. Stressful at times, frustrating because I’m expecting to see quick results, quick improvements. It’s a 10- to 12-month recovery and it takes time and patience. So that’s the biggest thing for me, I am working on patience and not trying to get too down on myself or frustrated when I’m not seeing quick results. But in the beginning, it took a long time. I was in a boot for I think two and a half months, and then I was slowly walking, so I wasn’t seeing results. But now every week since the ninth month I’m seeing dramatic improvement, and every week, like this week, I’m feeling more explosive. I’m just seeing more results every day and weekly instead of just monthly. So I can see the improvements now I could see the light for sure.”
