According to Boat pretty good:
Amida Brimah, who had surgery to repair the torn labrum in his left shoulder, is playing in the pickup games without restrictions. Now that he is playing without the shoulder pain that hampered him last year, he is attacking the boards more aggressively. "I'm rebounding better," Brimah said. "My offensive game is better. I'm making wiser decisions." Boatright sees a different player in Brimah. "A lot different player," Boatright said. "He's doing all the things Coach was trying to get him to do all last year. He's talking; when the big man is talking behind you, the whole team is playing better defense. He's attacking the glass. Everybody knows he can block a lot of shots, but his offensive game came a long way. He's making those 15-footers."
Good to hear. I was worried that the surgery might have cut into the normal frosh to soph development. Apparently not.
