The Portland Trail Blazers other offseason acquisition, Festus Ezeli, returned to practice on Monday. According to Joe Freeman of the Oregonian, Ezeli is cleared for ‘limited’ practice. Monday’s return to practice did include four-on-four drills. A block on Damian Lillard highlighted his successful return to the practice court. Ezeli still does not have a specific timetable to return to make a 100% return to action.
Given the offseason news around Ezeli thus far, this return to limited practice is a very good sign. Back in August, he received a bone marrow aspirate injection in his injured knee.
