Basketball News & NBA Rumors

Andrea Bargnani doesn’t want to talk about it, but the big man is in great shape as the season finally approaches.

Quietly, Bargnani, who has been knocked in the past for not always being the first player to arrive in the gym and the last to leave, has been in Toronto for the past few weeks undergoing vigorous individual workouts.

Coming off of a season where he averaged a career-best 21.4 points per game but somehow saw his rebound rate fall and his blocks per game drop in half, it seems Bargnani knows he will have to hit the ground running with new head coach Dwane Casey.

According to a source present or with knowledge of all of Bargnani’s workouts this month, the big man has dropped some weight and is moving extremely well.

Bargnani looked good on Monday, nailing the bulk of his shots and running well.
