The best thing to do is remove the rear wheel and check the bearing properly.
They could be rough and whining, but not necessarily with enough play to properly check especially with the caliper in place.
The bearing which goes first is usually the right one.
If the right one is gone replace the seal also.
Remember there are 3 bearings 2 in the wheel and 1 in the sprocket carrier.
It will also allow you to check the cush drives , if only to be sure they are all there
Would not be the first time the 5/8 mechanic would not put them all back.
