    His lower leg literally folded in half after running into the bottom of the hoop on a fast break trying to block Hardens shot.

    Reply was gruesome. They only replayed once it was so bad.

    Tried to block Harden on a breakaway. Leg got caught in the stanchion as he was landing and just snapped in half.

    He came down from trying to block a shot with his foot on the back stop floor with moment still going and his leg just snapped in half at the calf.

    I watched the vid on IG just to see how it happened.

    You could see the freaking bone. As soon as his foot landed it was instant.

    We had a game that night and I was actually able to never see the footage of that or a still pic. Can't see that kind of stuff. Accidentally just saw a photo of this......feel sick to my stomach!
