The Dallas Mavericks have been suffering from a mysterious illness that has been a major concern. Mavericks wing, Quentin Grimes in a press conference after the 134-122 home loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday opened up about the illness passed around in their locker room.
The $4.2 million wing, according to Spotrac, detailed the illness and how it also affected him. Grimes is earning $4.2 million as part of the 4-year, $11,128,042 rookie contract he signed with the New York Knicks in 2021.
While he doesn't know what exactly the illness was, he described his own as a form of "stomach bug", as per Dallas Mavericks reporter Noah Weber.
“I couldn’t even get out of bed, it ran through the whole team. I think J-Kidd and them got it…We haven’t been practicing as much because you don’t want to pass that around…I ain’t ever seen nothing like it, even in high school, college, everybody getting sick...," Grimes said.
