if hes healthy, I dont see why not.
The problem is he hasnt been fully healthy for about a year now.
Yes you can play through it, and if he was younger, i bet it wouldnt affect him much. But with his age and declining arm strength, he relies more on his lower body for power, and with an injured foot, it makes it that much more difficult to make the throws.
Right now, he is smart enough to know what to do with the ball even with a weak arm, but I think his ego is too big to where he wants to make all the throws he used to make and is forcing things this year. He will need to change up his game if he wants to continue to play.
