He played 31 minutes tonight instead of the usual 24, which meant more touches, which helped his production (18-6-5) and being able to get himself in rhythm. Liked how he was able to create shots for other players with his passing which he usually doesn't get to do when Kyrie and Terry are running the point as then his role is to stand in a corner and shoot 3s (which he hasn't been able to do very well anyway).
In his post game interview he said that before the game he was actually quite anxious about going out on the floor tonight, all the memories came back, not so much about the event (which he has probably tried to suppress) but about the aftermath, sitting in the x-ray room and then the locker room, the people who were there with him, and him thinking if he was ever going to play again. He was ok after the first few mins but was anxious during the shoot around and pregame. Hopefully he exorcised some of his demons.
There will be more ups and downs though, particularly when Kyrie and Mook come back, the minutes and the FGAs will drop. I'm sure there will be a few more single digit games in his future. But if he can maintain his efficiency then he'll continue to be on the right track.
