If nothing out of left field ends up happening before this coming Friday evening, we may yet see second-year shooting guard Romeo Langford make his season debut. Unfortunately for Langford however, the Indiana native has made a name for himself because of things coming out of left field to affect his availability.
It’s no fault of Langford’s that he has yet to play this season, having taken longer than expected to recover from surgery on a torn tendon in his wrist sustained in the Disney bubble while playing for the team in the 2020 NBA playoffs, only to be forced into the league’s health and safety protocols the very day he was hoping to get on the floor to play his first game of the 2020-21 season.
It’s gotten to the point where internet humorists have started questioning whether the Indiana product even exists.
