TJ Warren: I'm 100 percent healthy now
What would you say to any executives who have concerns about your past injuries? TJ Warren: I’m 100 percent healthy now. The foot injuries were a part of my career during those two years. I feel like I was reaching a crazy pinnacle right around the bubble. It was a great situation. Unfortunately, I had the injuries, and it set me back a little bit. I want to go out there and prove myself like I always have my whole career, being kind of under the radar. I feel like my production speaks for itself. I understand the concerns because two years was a long time, especially when you don’t know the situation thoroughly, but I’m completely healthy now and looking forward to the opportunity to prove myself again.

More on this storyline
What can you provide an NBA team now? TJ Warren: I think I can provide experience, a crazy work ethic, and be somebody that comes in and goes hard at all levels. I can connect with the young guys and be a veteran presence. This will be my 10th season, so I’ve been around for a while. I feel like I’m a lead-by-example type of guy. -via HoopsHype / November 24, 2023
Are there specific teams you think you can help now? If so, who and why? TJ Warren: There are a lot of teams that can use bench scoring for sure. I watch the NBA every day, and I’m watching to see where I can see myself helping playoff teams get over the hump and be a presence on both ends of the floor. I take pride in being a two-way player. I know a lot of people doubt my defensive ability because I score easily. I take pride on both ends of the floor. There are definitely a lot of playoff teams I can contribute to and make an impact. -via HoopsHype / November 24, 2023
What does it say about you that you returned after that layoff with Brooklyn? TJ Warren: It says I persevered through it. Adversity happens. It doesn’t define you. At the end of the day, it’s all about how you bounce back from it. I feel like I bounced back from it, and a lot of people didn’t think I’d be able to play again. I proved those people wrong, and I want to continue to prove people wrong. -via HoopsHype / November 24, 2023
