Nothing says you are not at already at 95% but held back by some anxiety. We see it all the time. Resolve the anxiety and the recovery is obvious. Give yourself a break.

If you stop over analyzing the situation and yourself, you will do much better. There are no answers to your questions. The best you can do is take care of yourself. No contact sports. No batting cage without a helmet. Read the Vitamins sticky and get started feeding your brain. Learn about how you can reduce your anxiety.

I looked up the speed of a pass and the weight of a basketball. At most, those hits were at a subconcussive level, no more, but I doubt it.

When you think you are cognitively struggling, stop and observe your environment. The sounds, sights, and even smells and other sensations that can over-stimulate you can make it difficult to process the cognitive task. Try reducing those stimulations and you should do better. Your anxiety makes those stimulations even more difficult to block out.

Often, recovery is a process in learning to relax and focus. Give it time.

My best to you.
