PORTLAND, Ore. (October 29, 2022) –The Portland Trail Blazers today announced that forward Josh Hart has entered the NBA’s Concussion Protocol following last night’s game.
Per the NBA’s Concussion Policy, Hart must go through the return-to-participation process, which can begin no earlier than 24 hours from the time of injury. The return-to-participation process includes a series of steps designed to ensure an athlete exhibits symptom free behavior before resuming full basketball activities. There is no timeframe to complete the process, as each injury and player is different and recovery time can vary in each case.
