Free agent TJ Warren is gearing up for a potential NBA comeback, expressing confidence in his 100% restored health after grappling with foot injuries for the past couple of years.
The 30-year-old forward, who concluded the previous season with the Phoenix Suns, averaging 4.2 points and 3.1 rebounds in 12.3 minutes per game, is eager to showcase his experience, unwavering work ethic, and leadership qualities to potential suitors.
In an exclusive interview with Michael Scotto of HoopsHype, Warren outlined what he believes he can offer an NBA team at this juncture, emphasizing his intention to bring a strong work ethic, experience, and mentorship to younger players.
“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,” affirms Warren.
When questioned about specific teams he sees himself contributing to, Warren highlighted the need for bench scoring on playoff contenders, expressing his commitment to being a two-way player and aiming to make a meaningful impact on both ends of the floor.
“There are definitely a lot of playoff teams I can contribute to and make an impact,” Warren asserts.
Addressing concerns about his past injuries, Warren assured executives that he is now completely healthy. Reflecting on his previous setbacks, he acknowledged the challenges but emphasized his readiness to prove himself once again.
“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,” states Warren.
