It looked really bad to me and I hate to say that because BI is a pro’s pro and works his arse off at his game but the knee doesn’t bend that far without tearing something. Praying we get lucky but i’ll be shocked if he doesn’t need knee surgery with a torn ligament. For a guy whose game is about being long and playing above the rim, rising above guys to get shots off, this looks concerning to say the least. This is either going to be a 2 week scare or a 6+ month recovery and rehab. I don’t see much in between here. It just looked to go too far for just a scare hyperextension though. Something had to give in that knee. I’m sure Willie already knows though. The trainers can do an ACL test in the locker room. Pray it isn’t a patellar tendon injury. I’ve had an ACL and a patellar in my life and the patellar was worse IMO.

Not saying there isn’t anything torn but that is definitely not true.

That’s not the type of mechanism that causes a patellar tendon tear. They will pretty much know what they are looking at with the MRI. I honestly don’t think it will be an ACL, but could be PCL. He can come back if there is just a capsular disruption.The worst injuries more often occur with the combination of hyperextension while an external force is applied. Just have to hope that some good fortune is on his side.
