Chris Bosh says he's 'hooping,' for those wondering about recovery image

Heat forward Chris Bosh made sure everyone remembered he can still play basketball Monday with a two-part message on social media.

"I know I've been gone for a month. Now I'm back," Bosh said in one of the videos posted to his Twitter account. "Everybody keeps asking if I'm hooping. Yes, I'm hooping. I'm a hooper."

Bosh, 32, followed it up with a demonstration of his dribbling skills at half court, leading up to a silky jump shot.

Despite battling two separate episodes of blood clots, which ended his last two seasons prematurely, the 11-time All-Star remains hopeful he can return to the court next season.

The Heat desperately need Bosh back after losing star guard Dwyane Wade, but his road to recovery still has no timetable.
