KUDOS TO YOU PITINO, for handling the situation as a great leader and down right awesome person you are. Thanks for being so loving and understanding to your team during a horrible incident......keep up the good work and let's win it all...for Kevin!!!!
HUGE respect for Kevin. I don't think anybody could be as strong as him. Such a bad injury, and I think he handled it real well. The team must feel horrible, i would to. It looked like the other team was upset that this happened. I cant blame them, that was brutal.
When I heard about this i felt so bad, but then i found out he will play again and it made me feel so much better :). At least he will have a cool story to tell when it gets all better
@visiblyimperfect11 It's good he broke it instead of sprained it because its easy to come back from a clean break like that. If he got a bad sprain he would most likely never play again but please broken in half bones are easier to come back on because your not hurting the muscle.
This is the reason i want and am in phyiscall therapy so i can help people recover from those injuries...help with rehap so they can play again :) good look Kevin im sure the boys will bring it home for you
I am still curious how did he get this type of injury, from the video it seemed like any other normal landing. I at least expected a knee injury, although it was a bit awkward how that result ended. I am just trying to find an explanation. Thanks
Strong guy. U don't feel the pain until u see it your injury. And for him to take his mind off the pain and to get him team head back into the game by sayin just win the game true ball player.
Who was the one player that saw the injury happen then jumped from behind the bench as Ware was laying alone on the floor? While the rest of the players tried to turn away and get away he came to Ware's aid almost immediately.
Well, i've heard that over the course of his basketball career, coming down on his legs, he developed small fractures that weren't diagnosed, which eventually led to well.. you know. It's like when people say "I loosened it up for you" when you try to open a bottle of water or something... Those fractures were that person, then that jump was the final push. Tragic, but good news is that he recovered, is in a cast, and might play next season. Although mentally and physically harming, he'll play.
With a player whose legs are exceptionally long and thin, plus had some stress fractures (even if they were painful, would be ignored because players just want to win, they don't care if they hurt) kinda surprising it doesn't happen more often. People don't think of repetitive injuries happening to bone, but it could be seen that way - it was finally one time too many, but since it's bone, that last 'small' injury caused catastrophic failure at the weakest point.
I don't follow the Cards or their players at all, but is someone saying Kevin Ware was married? Or are they referencing towards someone else, because last time I checked...he was not.
comparing injuries .. i think tearing your knee up is alot worst than breaking a bone as a bone can heal 100% ..poor man!... get well quickly Kevin....
To this day I can’t look at Kevin when he lands on the floor at that moment. Those minutes after, the boys so upset-all of it, go through my head and it makes me sick like it did that day.
May you please show me evidence of citric acid eating *cartilage, there is various evidence showing milk weakens bones, when drinking in EXCESS, hint the word EXCESS. It can cause conditions such as osteoporosis
You're actually wrong. He had an abnormally high amount of micro-fractures in his leg - thus making the angle at which he landed and the weakness in his leg led to this injury. It had nothing to do with how strong he is.
The reason his leg broke was because of the force, when you apply force awkwardly to your bones, they can snap instantly. That could of happened to anyone.
What difference does it make if its at a professional level or not, people love the sport. and March Madness is one of the most televised sporting events of the year
It is important, where do you think professional athletes got noticed for their sport? It's pretty much impossible to get drafted if you don't play in college. That's like saying high school is pointless unless you are going to get a job.
My comment was directed towards the people that were saying "omg pray for kevin sooo bad" or "worst sports injury" i don't follow motocross but i know injuries like this happen a lot in that sport. I guess i didn't express my opinion the right way. Sorry if that makes me a dumb ass.
This is unique because it's never happened in a basket ball game. It does happen several times a year in all kinds of sports. Btw, I love milk.... Especially chocolate.
No, its not that uncommon with athletes. These guys are so big and strong that all that force and power in their arms and legs can suffer serious compound injuries from time to time. We have seen these injuries before especially in football but it can also happen on a basketball court.
im sure his bones r strong obviously playin sports all those years. its just the certain angle of how he came down n pressure of it...could happen to anyone.
The bone broke and tore the skin, the impact force for this to happen has to be giant, impossible happen this only with a jump to block a shot, had something wrong with him
This team really loves each other and cares for each other it's sad :(
KUDOS TO YOU PITINO, for handling the situation as a great leader and down right awesome person you are. Thanks for being so loving and understanding to your team during a horrible incident......keep up the good work and let's win it all...for Kevin!!!!
That kid has heart...God Bless you bro & get well soon!

OMG I pray hell get better that was crazy I've never seen anything happen like that before or heard of anything like that before
And this is out of curiosity. Prayers for him and his recovery.
omg GOD BLESS HIM!!! Prayers go out to you Kevin Ware
My prayers go out for Kevin ware get well soon
I'm pretty sure he'll be able to play again pretty soon as well because his break was a clean cut and that heals much faster than a jagged cut.
kevin ware get better soon, we.love u
A pesar de semejante lesión, eso es pensar en el equipo! "Just win the Game", mis respetos para Kevin!
I'm not a big
fan, but Kevin showed he's a man!!!! "JUST WIN THE GAME!!!!"
Kevin, get well soon bro. My prayers are with you man!

Fantastic coach!!
I really hope he gets better

Very good coach.

In about a year, he will be back!! Pray for him and hope for the best. Im sure he will be back
This had to be difficult for everyone there. I'm glad they won.
Strong guy. U don't feel the pain until u see it your injury. And for him to take his mind off the pain and to get him team head back into the game by sayin just win the game true ball player.
Pitino is nothing but class all the way - Go Cards and get well soon Kevin Ware #5 Still Alive.
Prayers4Ware

I hope they win the whole thing for him

Thank you. Have a good day :-)
You're in our prayers Kevin Hart.
Great guy
I don't follow the Cards or their players at all, but is someone saying Kevin Ware was married? Or are they referencing towards someone else, because last time I checked...he was not.
did that hurt
Poor guy :( let's ALL pray for Kevin... EVEN Duke fans...
comparing injuries .. i think tearing your knee up is alot worst than breaking a bone as a bone can heal 100% ..poor man!... get well quickly Kevin....
You gotta press reply so he can see it !
To this day I can’t look at Kevin when he lands on the floor at that moment. Those minutes after, the boys so upset-all of it, go through my head and it makes me sick like it did that day.
Awh. Great couch.
@MagicFanMan it was hancock
I don't watch basketball but I hope he can recover that could cause permanent damage
Pray for Ware, poor guy :(
May you please show me evidence of citric acid eating *cartilage, there is various evidence showing milk weakens bones, when drinking in EXCESS, hint the word EXCESS. It can cause conditions such as osteoporosis
Actually.. I'm not joking. I'm just informing everyone that drinking milk strengthens your bones..
Mad respect for kevin and kobe got a bruised shin once and he went ln the bench smh
You're actually wrong. He had an abnormally high amount of micro-fractures in his leg - thus making the angle at which he landed and the weakness in his leg led to this injury. It had nothing to do with how strong he is.
Get well soon Kevin hart
The reason his leg broke was because of the force, when you apply force awkwardly to your bones, they can snap instantly. That could of happened to anyone.
He is still in the hospital , but he IS on crutches...He had surgery yesterday...
It's hard to believe a simple jump like that could break a leg so badly, but apparently it can
What difference does it make if its at a professional level or not, people love the sport. and March Madness is one of the most televised sporting events of the year
It is important, where do you think professional athletes got noticed for their sport? It's pretty much impossible to get drafted if you don't play in college. That's like saying high school is pointless unless you are going to get a job.
JBB6782 Is probably a Duke Fan!

Deep.
This is unique because it's never happened in a basket ball game. It does happen several times a year in all kinds of sports. Btw, I love milk.... Especially chocolate.
The cards r gonna win the championship for kevin ware
i have so much sympathy pain right now!
No, its not that uncommon with athletes. These guys are so big and strong that all that force and power in their arms and legs can suffer serious compound injuries from time to time. We have seen these injuries before especially in football but it can also happen on a basketball court.
I can personally say I agree.
It is a terrible injury in basketball but people need to realize that shit like this happen in motocross all the time.
@jmachitmaker i knoooow...it would have been the greatest prank ever pulled. Unfortunatly, no one is laughing. Well no one should be laughing!
I watched the video about Joe theisman getting his leg snapped by Lawrence Taylor
im sure his bones r strong obviously playin sports all those years. its just the certain angle of how he came down n pressure of it...could happen to anyone.
I'm scared not to now
Works fine on mobile, that guy has a Walmart phone ;) pray for Kevin though, what a fucking sport
And i mean It took alot for me to watch dis
Wow people think I'm disrespecting him please stfu I'm standing up for the guy.
I'm never walking again... Just in case.
If that was Kobe, he'd be in the next game. #bigboypants #supergluethatshit #tragicbronsonstrikesagain
The bone broke and tore the skin, the impact force for this to happen has to be giant, impossible happen this only with a jump to block a shot, had something wrong with him
they said extremely unlikely
Give him a bionic astro boy leg then watch him do a full court dunk!
i think he will not came back again in hard court.. :(
AND TGE MAN IS ONLY 20!!
Awwwww
hes been "coming soon" for 2000 years
He probably already had a injury in his leg or had a micro fracture where it broake
He snapped his leg in half it wasn't a normal broken leg if they can't fix it they'll have to cut his leg off
damn. Dont need to say more. just damn.
shit like this never happens in basketball, that's exactly why everyone is so interested in it.
the dudes bone was 6 inches out his damnn leg.!!
Imagine what Jesus had to go through......
Did people forget he cheated on his wife? Oh nothing but class such a respectable man?
