As a fan and follower of the NBA I literally just found out about this accident today. Shawn is the man, a true inspiration
Use to love this guy on NBA live
Props to his wife for not leaving him.
Much respect to them both

Anyone who's been seriously hurt knows it's not the disability that sucks, it's not being yourself again. You gotta accept that old self is gone and embrace a new self.
That tears me apart. It's demoralizing. Not being able to do what you used to. 😖😔💔💔
I am so saddened to hear of this. I am lifting prayers for Shawn! I am also delighted to see his wife keeping her vows and staying by his side!
What a brave man Shawn Bradley is! He has a great family to support him as well.
We love you Shawn. Thanks for inspiring people like me, I played center in school and watched you play in the NBA as a kid. My left arm was crippled when I was a kid skateboarding and my right arm has been crippled as an adult when my bike fell apart when I was riding it but I won't give up. I'm going to still play basketball.

Heard about this incident awhile back and was curious as to how things were with Shawn. Glad to see that he is in good spirits as he cherishes each and everyday with his supportive family.
May God continue to have blessing upon them all. 💪🏾🙏🏾

just cherish everyday. We all take many things for granted. All of sudden, they can all be gone.
I'm so happy he can use his arms still
Thank you for sharing your story. How I wish I could give you your independence and legs back. I hadn't known of you with them. I'll never forget you, now. Because of your kindness and inspirational progress. Your family is absolutely beautiful. I wish we all could be so fortunate. You've inspired millions.
Stay positive big man!!
Bikers, be careful, because of the freaking smartphones, the drivers aren’t paying attention. Try to avoid riding bikes on the roads.
I do, especially in L.A. where I have had a few close calls. These drivers don't need to be distracted by a phone, sometimes they just seem to not care.
When your in gratitude your in your spirit. Thanks Shawn.
Strong message. Shawn Bradley was always my go to in NBA LIVE 2003. I hate that that happened to a good person.
God Bless Shawn Bradley!!!🌹🌹🌹❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Good to see an outlet checking in on him. He crossed my mind due to a KG anecdote in reference to Yao Ming.
Best wishes to Shawn.
I had no clue this happened to Shawn. Met him once in 1995 when I was 18. I worked at SKIRMISH USA in Jim Thorpe, PA. which is a paintball facility. He looked like a walking tree, literally. He had camo on and IIRC they had to sew legs onto the bottom of his pants because they didn't have any long enough for him. For a split second my eyes didn't understand what they were seeing, at first glance a walking tree. Anyway I asked for an autograph and he signed his name with 76 and was very kind. 7 foot 6 inches and played for the 76ers with 76 on his jersey. So sorry to hear of this happening to him. I'm glad to see he has a good support system surrounding him.
What a Man and what a wonderful wife! - I always loved Shawn standing in there and getting dunked on without complaining. Now I see that he is just a solid and good man.
That's an amazing wife. Shawn has a great attitude. Seems like a genuinely good dude
Much love to you Shawn from an oldschool basketball fan here ❤❤❤❤❤
🇵🇱🇺🇸
Bless him…😢
Something like this makes you question everything, it makes you question what life is actually about when you never thought about it deep enough before.
God bless you Shawn.
You have an awesome family bro. Stay strong!
Big up Shawn Bradley ⭐️
Tragic. Respect for him changing his attitude. Well wishes shawn
What is the chief end of man ?
Man's chief end is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever.
Seek Christ Jesus the Redeemer
Eh I think live a good life and be good to those who you encounter in life and thats good enough. Also dont spam youtube channels over and over with the same message maybe?
Live life to the fullest
Well this nostalgia journey as a long time Mav's fan took a turn. I completely forgot about this. So sorry for Shawn, hope he and his wife are doing well.
I didn’t know he could move his arms. Wow that’s encouraging
Stay positive Sean
Stay strong Big Fella
Be well...peace. Great woman by your side. Find Peace daily
WOW..Just heard about this today..sending hopes and prayers his way! I do believe there are new experimental techniques to regrow cells in the spine..here is hoping!
Good luck shawn its terrible this happened
Inspirational.
Your telling me that lady actually ask if him if he wanted him to after seeing him flip after hitting a car.
What action is she getting on the side?
Same hight as her in the chair. Glad he doing better!
The awfulness of that situation aside, imagine being a paramedic and seeing this giant man laying on the ground.
Unbelievable
How do you not se a 7'6 man on a Bike?!
Well at least he has a kid on the way, so there's room for optimism
props to him and his wife, but its much easier to make the transition and acceptance when you have millions
God bless him 🙏🏽❤️🔥
That must hurt im sorry 😢
why dont they ever mention this story on Inside the NBA??
So beautiful.
I wish you well Shawn.🙏🏾
J'ai toujours aimé ce joueur, et très triste quand j'ai appris cet accident !!!
Courage à sa famille et à lui ...
Im from África...for us alot of things use to come later ...só sad
Such an awesome person.
Hope he's with people who love and care for him. Part of the Mavs family. This and Jeremy Renner accidents seem weird to me
Poor guy he’s the man
Thank you For Space Jam
I wonder why he is so estranged from his first wife and their six children.
Dr Rhahim. Gonstead Chiropractor (Los Angeles rea) if ya'll have a chance to put that process into the recovery.
How does someone not see this giant
He was in Space Jam!
🙏🏾
Amazing
🙏🏻
I remember him from the movie space jam.
Even when he sitting he taller than most people
This is the disadvantage if you are getting older with height of 6"5 above, very hard to move.
Can’t ride bikes for this reason
Shawn : Thanks for sharing
Good for him.
May Allah make it easy on him and his family
Beast
Is his wife available???
GOOD man...left US to do work as MISSIONARY in spare time
How many 20yo do that??.....MUCH LESS NBA LOTTERY DRAFTS
Still taller than most people in a chair
❤
Crazy if he would of got hit again this time in his chair😳
Legend?!?!!? That’s a very loosely used word now
I mean Shawn Bradley is a legend
@@NevaSellmySoul No not an NBA legend. He was quite mediocre as a pro basketball player.
A Christian centered marriage
Bradly try to study the origin of the Mormon religion and start study that with great apologetics
I'm 7'2 dwarf
I will be ur height
"Neck down"? Naw, he was moving his upper torso and hands. He's healing his own self!
I’m so sorry ❤️🔥💯 Sean you will be back soon
How is he now?
