Quote:
The cause of Dion Waiters' illness that led to the Miami Heat listing him as out for the team's game Friday night against the Los Angeles Lakers has reportedly surfaced.

ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski and Brian Windhorst reported Saturday night that Waiters "experienced a panic attack on the team's chartered flight Thursday night after consuming a THC-infused edible," a substance that is banned by the NBA.

The Heat did not provide a comment.

Wojnarowski and Windhorst's joint report came after Fox Sports 640 South Florida's Andy Slater first reported that Waiters passed out on the team plane from Phoenix to L.A. Thursday as a result of eating gummies.


Quote:
In a report published on Oct. 20 by Heavy.com's Sean Deveney, an anonymous NBA general manager disclosed that the Heat had been trying to trade Waiters "since last Christmas."

"No one was trying to take him on then," the GM continued. "After this [suspension], it would be really hard to take him on now. He has had this kind of junk attached to him just about his whole career."

People will be surprised how strong THC is when consumed orally, lol.

To think this guy was drafted #4 in the same draft as Anthony Davis, ahead of Damian Lillard at #6, Drummond at #9, Draymond Green at #35, and Khris Middleton at #39.

I recall he used to have disputes with Kyrie over who was the man on the team !

Yeah I updated the Injury thread because I’m sorry but it was too funny. First his reason listed for being out was literally just OUT. Then I saw he had a panic attack and I felt bad for him. But then I read *why* he had the panic attack and I was like Oh. ah boy ...
