Ausar Thompson Blood Clot Update: Pistons F Cleared to Play After Missing 8 Months

Pistons Forward Ausar Thompson has been medically cleared to play after missing eight months due to a blood clot in his leg.

The 22-year-old underwent surgery to remove the blood clot in February and has been recovering ever since. He was initially expected to miss the entire 2022-23 season, but he has made a remarkable recovery and is now ready to return to the court.

Thompson is a key player for the Pistons, and his return is a major boost for the team.

He is a talented wing who can score, rebound, and defend. He averaged 9.1 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 2.8 assists per game last season.

Thompson's return will give the Pistons a much-needed boost on both ends of the floor.

He is a versatile player who can play multiple positions and provides the Pistons with a much-needed scoring threat. He is also a good defender who can help the Pistons improve their defense.

The Pistons are currently 12-33 and in last place in the Eastern Conference. Thompson's return will give the Pistons a much-needed boost and help them make a push for a playoff spot.

Thompson is excited to be back on the court and is ready to help the Pistons win.

"I'm just happy to be back on the court," Thompson said. "I've been working hard to get back, and I'm ready to help my team win."

Thompson is expected to make his season debut on Friday against the Charlotte Hornets.
