BELLEVILLE — Javon Pickett tried to keep all the negative thoughts out of his head when he went back to the doctor Monday to get the results from the MRI exam taken of his injured right knee.
Two missed games, some time on crutches and the three-day wait between his MRI exam and receiving the results was reason enough for the Belleville East junior to try to remain positive. All he knew for sure was his knee hurt. A definitive answer wouldn’t come without an MRI exam.
A little hesitance on Pickett’s part was certainly understandable.
But ultimately unnecessary.
