Nuggets guard Austin Rivers called his two-month hoops hiatus a “blessing in disguise.”
Not only did it give Rivers time to conduct a self-audit, it gave him the chance to master the art of the diaper change.
“I have a two-month-old baby boy, so I got to be at home with him,” Rivers told The Denver Post. “I had my son come up (to New York), my two-year-old, which was a handful. I was really on like daddy duty, man. I was making dinners, cleaning diapers, waking up in the morning, just life, man. It was a new experience for me being able to do that stuff, but it was amazing.
