Story with details of the Warriors complaint against the Blazers, including sources clarifying to The Athletic that Gary Payton II was given oral doses of Toradol in order to manage his pain.
The core muscle injury Payton had surgery on in the offseason is still in bad shape. The Blazers reportedly administered oral doses of Toradol so he could play but didn’t disclose it to the Warriors when the sides worked out the deal. Blazers general manager Joe Cronin said Payton, who played in 14 of Portland’s last 17 games, was healthy and cleared to play.
But the Warriors’ medical staff, according to sources, is saying he needs about three months to recover, so the defending champions are now weighing the decision of whether to cancel the trade or accept being blindsided by Payton’s medicals.Payton reportedly wanted out of Portland, which led to them trading away the guard who they signed this past offseason to a three-year, $26 million deal.
