Hmm, I wonder what symptoms he has that led to a failed test? Hope it's nothing serious.

Delayed concussion?

Passed concussion tests twice and then failed on a Sunday morning? Are they sure he isn't just hung over?

All kidding aside, better to be safe than sorry.

Hope for a speedy recovery, we need him for the West road trip.
I guess JJ should get heavy minutes for Melo

I wonder if they'll look at a possible neck injury ( see Sidney Crosby)

Damn, that sucks for him. James Johnson will have a big matchup today with Melo

Is there more rigorous testing to be cleared for games as opposed to practice?

Because if not they might have missed something yesterday, which is troubling.

JJ should start and we should let Bruno take JJ's minutes bench minutes.

Lol who am I kidding.

It will be a mix of James Johnson and Patterson, as Anthony plays PF as well.

Concussions can come and go, but they can stay with you for a long time, get well Landry.

I had a workplace accident in June and my diagnosis was a brain contusion but I felt dumb for 3 months, even these days I still feel like something is missing upstairs.

Shouldn't be a major concussion if it wasn't immediately picked up. Had to be a concussion with all that blood

Edit: nvm

almost all concussions are delayed in the sense that the most serious symptoms with long term effects take hours and most likely days to show up.

Thanks for this info!

Poor Landry can't catch a break in his basketball career.
