More on this storyline
There were even grumbles coming from the home locker room, some of which Morris aired publicly during an offseason appearance on FanDuel’s Run It Back show, saying he would have played through the same injury Allen had. “It’s understandable,” Allen said of Morris’ comments. “Like I said, you don’t understand until you go through it.” -via Cleveland Plain Dealer / October 1, 2024
Jarrett Allen heard all the criticism in the aftermath of his playoff rib injury — including the biting words from former teammate Marcus Morris Sr. As per usual, Allen simply brushed it off. “It takes a lot more to get under my skin,” Allen said during the Cavs’ annual media day on Monday afternoon at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse. “One funny thing that I always laugh at, you never understand how bad a rib injury is until it happens to you. I was looking at other people, ‘Oh, it can’t be that bad.’ It finally happened to me and I’m like, ‘Oh damn, this sucks.’” -via Cleveland Plain Dealer / October 1, 2024
