The Gilbert Arenas quote from a podcast released 3 weeks ago

“He’s lucky,” Arenas said of Morant during a podcast visit on the I Am Athlete media network, “because he didn’t have to sit out a whole time — and he’s healthy. … He gets to go in and be (himself again). He gets the love (from the public) right now. He was just two weeks out, and he’s back. I had to sit 50 games. The narrative (in the media) got the run. …”
