Looked like a compound fracture of lower leg.

Not looking.

After I saw bone sticking out of that Louisville players shin and the bottom of his leg hanging by gravity, I figure that's enough for me, and it probably would be the worst sports injury I'll ever see anyway.

Kevin Ware???

It's crazy how this injury happens about once a year in basketball.

I watched it live. I had just gotten home and put the tv on NBAtv and saw the Nets and Blazers were in double overtime. Not 15 seconds after I put the game on I saw his leg SNAP. They never showed the replay but I rewinded it a couple times and it was gruesome.

The ref was oblivious to the injury and stepped on it. Terrible.

Tough break for both Nurkic and the Blazers as the playoffs are coming soon.

Confirmed compound fracture of both bones

So Kanter is going to be their starting center?

That would be interesting if OKC can get back to fifth. Ole buddies Kanter vs Adams down low
