Do you know why he missed a week? "Personal"
Justise is a fine young person, intelligent, sensitive, and soft-spoken. He is just not a NBA basketball player. He is only 25-years old yet is on his third team. He was a first-round, no. 10, draft pick. He played collegiately at Duke. Pat Riley raved about him. Yet Justice's career is nearing its end. He missed games with Miami for "personal reasons" also. He was down on himself, depressed. I am sure those are the same "personal" reasons in Los Angeles. Justise may not want to hear it at such a young age, when he is still consumed by his NBA failure, but he is loved. He has family, friends, fans in Miami and Memphis who remember him fondly. Nobody has a bad word to say about him as a person. I wish for Justise peace, and he likely will not find it until he closes the basketball chapter of his life and moves on.
