I was really hoping he wouldn't injure his medial retinaculum

[drayyum]

As a physical therapist, this is the first time I didn’t skip the anatomy part of the video lol

[GlobalRevolutionAll]

I kid you not 20 minutes ago I was hoping you had already made this video and went to look for it. You are a treasure. Why so many of your videos been taken down recently?

[slosprint]

I love Porzingis but we need to figure out some way to replace his legs with wheels or rocket boosters or something

1:51 who else hears a baby crying in the background lol. Gotta respect the hustle from Doc

[TheKazi]

I followed this account way back in 2019 during my senior year of high school. I am now a PTA student and still absolutely love this channel. Thank you for connecting the lines between sports and medicine!

Brian this was an exceptional explanation. You had me flexing my foot and toes as you described the tendons of the foot and their function.

[rogerbaim]

I've never previously watched Dr. Sutterer, but this was an utterly superb presentation of the anatomy and functional considerations of Porsingis' ankle injury. ABSOLUTELY top notch!

[toyin]

Been waiting for this as soon as the news dropped (reading that report had my head spinning ngl)

[rawmilkactivis]

I always have to see what my man Brian says about an injury before I start to feel any type of way about a sports injury, fantastic content!

[meepk]

Pingus Malingus GET BACK IN THERE. Hope he's ok though. He's a really genuine and driven guy.

[jacobmoran]

Would taping or bracing be able to hold that tendon in place and be used as a temporary fix?

[hectorirene]

I’m a Celts fan but the Luka injury sounds worse than the Porzingis one. Potential of a ruptured lung, that’s scary af. Hopefully nothing bad happens to any of them. Want to win the title, but don’t want anybody dying out there, my goodness.

[tinobrown]

I love Porzingis playing for my Celtics, but damn he’s fragile as shit.

[TaquitoAddict]

Ugh...we have a torn Medingus Retinalingus!

[dondeezy]

2:00 i think he was just trying to avoid stepping in kyrie’s landing space because that’s a flagrant foul

[theshivelyshow]

i saw this at work and i was hoping there would be a video when i got home. plus bonus luka content. thanks doc🙏🏾

[AustinMulkaMusic]

That’s crazy how he’s 7’3 and just jumped up to block a shot and landed on one foot avoiding landing on the other at all. I can’t imagine being able to do that if I were that tall.

[WopJr]

babies hard at work in the background trying to stop my learning lol

[FoodieDaddyPH]

I've been following this channel since Doc was explaining Jumper's Knees. I swear Doc Brian is the most reliable resource to explain all these sports injuries and he is quick to upload too. Love this channel! Appreciate you, doc!
