    That was the worst injury I have seen happen on a basketball court.

    Hope he is ok and the team recovers quickly.

    That was worse than Theisman. Worst thing I've seen in all my years of watching sports. WOW!

    Hard to watch. I looked away when I saw his leg broken like that.

    It was a bad injury but Theisman's broken femur was much more serious than fracturing lower leg bones. I suffered the same injury as the Louisville player during high school football

    Kid snapped his leg in two places and the bone was out of the skin. Really hard to watch.

    I turned back to the game just as they were taking him off the court so I didn't get to see what actually happened. Just looked it up and that is terrible. Can't imagine something like that happening. Praying for a speedy recovery.

    Wicked injury, hope he's able to fully recover. Good to see his team was able to rally and play well after seeing that, although I'm a Duke fan.

    How does that happen without much influence? A prior injury would explain but without that it seems odd. Feel terrible for such a talented player.

    I could only watch it once and had to turn away. Just can't do it.
    In the post game interview the coach stated that it was broken in 2 places, that he would go into immediate surgery and it was at least a years recovery (cited another instance of nearly the same injury to a college football player).

    Really hope all goes well for him, the pain isn't too much and the recovery as well.

    I saw it live and you could hear it in the voice of Nantz and Kellogg.
