Bosh has blood clot again
A person with knowledge of the situation said Monday that Miami Heat forward Chris Bosh is dealing with another blood- clot scare and will meet with doctors this week to try to find a way to continue playing this season.
Bosh will spend the next few days reviewing his options, the person told the Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the Heat haven’t revealed the matter publicly.
It’s a similar situation to what Bosh faced during the All- Star break last season, when a blood clot was found on his lung and sidelined him for the rest of the season.

The announcement ends speculation the Lightning might abandon hopes of signing Stamkos, who has 22 goals and 20 assists this season, to a long- term extension.
