It was hard to watch. Dejounte Murray was bolting to the basket and went down under the rim in a preseason game against the Houston Rockets. The arena went silent as fans attempted to understand just what had happened. There seemed to be no contact. Had he twisted his ankle?
He got up up his own freewill after a wheel chair had been brought to him. Murray painfully paced the floor toward center court as a collective sigh of relief filled the air. Then he turned, walked off court, and did not return to the game.
