Sport Athletes playing too much video games ?

(1/2) > >>

David Price has admitted he loves playing video games (fortnite) and loves to play after a baseball game until 2-3am.   On off days may have video game marathons

Karl Anthony towns recently spotted with De Aaron Fox playing endless video games (see pic below).

The list of athletes addicted to video games is long

Now look.. not saying athletes or anybody else on their spare times , can't play video games etc.  But when playing too much video games causes carpal tunnel (Price) or you do this half the offseason instead of hitting the gym (example Fox seriously needs to hit the gym), or watch film etc..  I think there is something wrong with this picture.   I think teams should add clauses to minimize athletes playing video games during regular season/playoffs.   It's kind of ridiculous if you think about it.

You're basing this on what exactly??

Minimising video game playing is pretty hilarious.

I'm not saying your wrong, but maybe it's possible that while they aren't playing video games, they are actually hitting the gym.

I mean, most of the Lakers (Kuzma, Hart, etc.) have been playing video games and so has Ben Simmons among others. Not like it's just a select few, I'm sure EVERYONE plays video games.

So does Gordon Hayward. He still does in his time off, BUT he also rehabs and spends a lot of time each day rehabbing. Should he be banned from video games or just limited to like 30 minutes/day??  :P

This is Ridiculous...

No one plays and practices 24 hours a day...

These are Millionaire's - I wonder what else could they be doing with their time...

Maybe they should Gamble Like Jordan and Barkley.. Or maybe have a bunch of Kids like Kemp and Howard.. Maybe Take the Kobe tour up to Colorado... OR better yet follow Magics lead...

There are many worse things than video games..
