This week, Dr. Daniel Medina joined the Wizards Podcast Network’s “Off The Bench” podcast to give an update on how he and his staff are working to keep the team mentally and physically fit and healthy during the coronavirus pandemic. Medina, Monumental Basketball’s Chief of Athlete Care and Performance, explained some of the tactics he’s using with his staff to keep players healthily engaged from a distance and talked about how the team’s recent West Coast road trip gave them a head start in the education process and prepared them for the weeks to come.

Medina noted that in the weeks leading up to the suspension of the NBA season, the Wizards embarked on a West Coast trip that took them through areas that have since been hit hard by the COVID-19 outbreak.
