His feet just slipped out from under him. When he stood up and went back down i knew he was done for the night. Our big 3 are Ajax, Hawk and Sanogo and two are already going to miss time. Better early i guess.
but you said he (hawkins) just needs to toughen up, right?
Yeah 3 concussions in about a year doesn't bode well. I hope he can snap out of this and make something out of his career but repeated injuries like this just build up over time which is sad. Head injuries are scary and it is better to stop playing ball and have a normal life if this continues. I'm sure UCONN is going to be very careful with him now.
People don’t lay on the ground holding the back of their head after whiplash
c'mon, how derivative is this?
Did he get overwhelmed by the pressure of being a 1st round pick when he was in mid-air or something? There's no connection
“A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) that can occur after an impact to your head. Concussions can also happen during a whiplash-type injury that causes your head and brain to shake quickly back and forth.”

No, but now the kid might feel like he needs to rush back, might take the injury more to heart, etc.

I guess, but it's not like Hurley is making that statement out of nowhere. The national media is all over Hawkins being a 1st round pick, he's on just about every 2023 mock draft. Unless he's been living under a rock nothing Hurley said was news to him
exactly
Okay, but my dude said you can’t have your head hurt after whiplash. Which is really dumb.
exactly. there's enough outside chatter. no need to make statements to the media about it.
You missed the point my guy
Hoping for the best. Kid has a ton of life ahead of him. Hope he can play hoops, but that has to be secondary to the rest of his life.
Unfortunately after his concussion last year he ran into a screen . He didn’t hit his head but got his second concussion just from getting hit in the chest and his head bouncing from that.
Hearsay, that’s impossible.
Hold your L with more grace, my guy. it’s a bad look
You might wanna read the first post in the argument, he obviously cares. I didn’t post my concussion article and meme randomly. Not sure why you stepped into the crossfire to get bodied like this, go back to posting that super funny #concerned meme, you haven’t worn it out yet.
He’s not in concussions protocol (yet), a good sign.
