  1. I had a grade 3 sprain some years ago while out running. Was running down stairs full speed and my foot caught the edge of the last stair. I suffered a full inversion sprain and heard a loud crack; was later told that was the ligament ripping apart.

    Whenever I see ankle injuries now I immediately cringe. And like anything else in life, experience brings a lot of knowledge with it. It took me a full year to get back to running and several more years for the stiffness to disappear. I could probably write a book about the whole long ordeal, including the mistakes made along the way that delayed my recovery.

  2. the craziest thing, during all star weeknd he was just saying he doesn't get injured and he thinks the players should just play, not saying this affects that, but it sucks that right after that this happens

  3. I have been dealing with ankle injury all my life. I was life Steph every time you turn around I had one. It started when I was young playing football and got tackle and the guy twisted my ankle as he was tackling me. Then playing basketball I would all way roll it on someone I'm playing against. Then after I turn 18 I went and got a job and I will turn my ankle on rocks or any little thing. To this day I'm 58 I still tend to turn my ankle just by going on a daily walk. I seem like I can not win that battle.

  4. I sprained both my ankles once each and badly…..my first, the right one was coming down with a rebound and my foot came down on someone else's foot and it rolled and I went to sit down asap…..
    I got dizzy a few minutes afterwards…..and boy it swelled up fast. I had to loosen my sneaker fast, I couldn't plant on it for a out 3-4 days…..and a total of 6-7 being bruised badly….
    But after spraining each ankle badly once thank God I haven't sprained it ever since…..actually they have felt a bit stronger….but one thing I do is soak it in Epsom salt for a week about twice a day in hot water…..and once you can move it always exercise it when you have time. Like move it around, it will give it much more mobility and prevent any future serious sprains…

  5. Durants injury looked the same if not worse, yet kd got up like nothing happened & continued his workout for 10 mins after meanwhile edwards is screaming & cant put weight on it.. i dont understand didnt they both sprain their ankle?
