Chris Bosh - Blood Clots

Chris Bosh is done for the season after getting blood clots. Scary stuff considering how much flying these guys do, probably lucky it popped up over All Star break so he wasn't in the air much. To put in perspective this is what killed Jerome Kersey a few weeks back.

hope he recovers well for next season, it's going to be an uphill battle for the heat to the end of the season to keep in the playoff race

and for a moment there was a starting five of Dragic-Wade-Deng-Bosh-Whiteside and then the clot emerges.

There's an illuminating article over on Reddit about this and what it means for Bosh moving forward. If he gets another clot at any stage he's out of the game for life.
