Chris Bosh says he has no blood clots, still hoping to return

Chris Bosh ended his silence Thursday morning regarding his health and raised the possibility he could return to the Miami Heat this season.

“I know there have been many questions regarding my health and when I will play again,” Bosh wrote in a statement released by his publicist. “My situation this year has never been life-threatening. I am feeling great and currently I do not have deep-vein thrombosis.

“Together with the Miami Heat, I am working with doctors, exploring the best precautionary treatment options and taking every necessary step to make sure I am healthy for myself, my family and my team.

"I have been working out, training with the team, watching film of the games, walking through plays and have attended home games despite not being visible to the public.

“I will continue to support my teammates in every way possible. I remain positive that I will be able to return this season. I truly appreciate everyone’s concern and support.”
