The news isn’t good regarding newly drafted Raptors rookie Nathan Jawai. The sidelined forward has an enlarged heart and if his condition worsens he may never play in the NBA.  This is obviously horrible news for a kid that is only 22 years old. Let’s hope he gets better!
“The Raptors have kept details of Jawai’s case secret for two months, other than repeating he has been tested for cardiac issues that arose before training camp.But The Sunday Telegraph revealed yesterday that a further six-week rest has been advised by doctors after the latest series of tests. An enlarged heart carries the obvious risk of heart attacks.
“The doctors are being extra cautious,” Jawai’s agent, Daniel Moldovan, told the paper. “It was their recommendation — not their demand — that Nate take another six weeks off.”
