It's for Emanuel Negadu, he was diagnosed with cardio myopathy. During practice he collapsed unconscious and a defibrillator was used to revive him.

Actually, the E is in tribute to Emmanuel Negedu. Nice gesture, I think.

I hope they ask Jimmy Hyams before they printed those patches. Or at least told him. Two hissy fits in one week can't be a good thing.

It is a gesture for E-man.

In case you didn't know. He suffered a pretty bad cardiac problem in fall practice, forced him out for the season and may be derailing his career as a basketball player. He will be missed.
