Chris Bosh put on a few pounds this summer, in a good way and for a good reason.

And he figures it'll help the next phase of his comeback.

The Miami Heat forward said Thursday that he no longer needs to take blood-thinning medication, which means he can participate fully when training camp opens Tuesday. Bosh missed the final 30 games last season after a blood clot was diagnosed on his left lung, and has been back in on-court workouts for about two months but not cleared for any contact until now.
