Eric Bledsoe Fighting Through Injuries

The entire left side of Eric Bledsoe’s body ached from a fall he took in the fourth quarter of Saturday night’s game, leaving the muscular guard admitting that he was “banged up on my whole left side.”

So, did Bledsoe take the ice bath for his sore left elbow, left side and left hip that forced him to wear a pad during the game?

“No, man,” Bledsoe said, smiling. “I didn’t feel like getting in. It takes me like 30 minutes to get in.”

Bledsoe, 23, finished the Pistons game with only four points.

“As long as we got the win, that’s all I care about,” Bledsoe said. “I felt a little sore, but I was good enough to play.”
