“I’m looking forward to playing on Friday as long as the foot feels good,” Fields said last night after Pitt’s light workout at the Petersen Events Center. “Everything is going as planned.”
When asked later about how confident he was in playing, Field said: “I know I’m going to play.”
Levance Fields wasn’t smiling when he said it, but everyone could tell he was content inside.
“I’m going to play,” he said. “You probably can’t tell by this face, but I’m real energetic. When Friday gets here, I will be extra excited.”
Sensing a theme?
You see this in the NBA from time to time. If a player like Kobe Bryant is out with an injury, the rest of the team steps it up, and can still win. Yet when Bryant returns, the rest of the team scores 12 points, and Kobe scores 50.
