He was driving to the basket and got fouled. I don't know if he landed on someone or just the floor tying to brace himself. His knee and his leg went the wrong way. It was brutal

Thanks to all for the feedback.

I'm wondering if Ulis is available tonight.

Impressive bounce-back from Jackson after his 0-13 game. (I know that this is his second game since then.) I wonder if it has helped him relax, like, "Well it can't get any worse than that, so I might as well just play."

Yep... his foot was pointed in a 90 degree angle to his left. It looked grotesque, but he just sat there as if nothing was wrong! Amazing...

That's what threw me. It looked like he only tweaked an ankle so I wasn't looking closely.

Cannon is done, maybe for good. Wow that was a bad break. I wonder if we could get Jackson to slow down and play point.

The only good thing about it was that he wasn't showing any signs of pain yet (due to a combination of shock and adrenaline)

I was watching him on the floor and initially thought it was only minor. A lady in the crowd was grimacing is what caught my attention but they were not showing anything then.

One good trait jackson has is that he can move past bad performances and he often does in a hurry. What started his good stretch of play was getting benched

Nowhere near as important as the severity of Canaan's injury, but it is disappointing that he finally just started getting a chance at the Point.

Last second shot by Jackson, so our lead is back to double digits at halftime -- 57-46.

Jackson with a crazy shot at the halftime buzzer.

This would be such a crucial loss, but man is Jackson having a nice game. That last shot shows his immense talent. That was a ridiculous shot.
