My leg is healthy and ready to go but I just haven't forced it because these games don't count. I know it's healthy.

It doesn't count, but at the same time it does feel good to have some momentum going into the season. I feel ready to go. My leg is healthy, I just really haven't tried to force it yet because the games don't count.
