Juwan Morgan took a break from his NBA Draft prep and made an appearance on an Indianapolis news station Sunday night and was asked about the kind of teammate Romeo Langford was in his lone year in Bloomington.
His response was direct, and shot down any potential narrative that the potential lottery pick might not have been all in on his team last season:
“He was definitely the best teammate I’ve ever been with. All the guys will attest to that, Romeo was not a bad teammate at all. If you were there in the locker room and during practice, you would see the pain he’s going through with his hand. He was in treatment more than anyone else I’ve ever been around, and I’ve been around a lot of injured guys.”
So, there you have it. From Morgan’s perspective, it seems as though Langford fought through a tremendous amount to be on the court with his teammates.
