He just had a week off.
Look, I'm no Reggie apologist — I was ready to move on from him at the deadline — but no matter how you feel about the man, his attitude, and his style of play, I think it's impossible to watch last night's game and think he's healthy; hell, on his last two "penetrations" he stopped about 8 feet from the rim and fell down!
So this is kinda brutal, but I think it's time that SVG and the coaching / medical staff just shut him down completely. The team plays better with Ish and he's only hurting his trade value. I honestly appreciate him trying to play through it, and I don't know if we keep him through the offseason or not (the last starting PG before Reggie lost the job while injured), but just like a corner man who knows when to throw in the towel, it's time for SVG to take the decision out of the player's hands, protect Reggie from himself, and do what's best for the team.
