Man seriously don't quit b.ball but u should maybe take awhile off and don't push yourself to hard shoot around and stuff but don't do anything to intense. but you should never quit doing what you love. I broke my ankle 3 times 2 years ago playing b.ball ( the first time doing a 360 layup around someone i'm never going to try that again. The second time someones foot was in the way when i came down from grabbing a offensive rebound. The third time i was doing a fade away jumper and slipped on a rock which broke it) but i took a year off and strengthened my ankle and and I'm back playing b.ball again.

Dear mabweed,
Your decision to play should be partially based on your passion for the sport- but should also be based on what your doctor has to say.
It seems like you could injure yourself by playing sooner than you should- so you should really follow your doctor and therapists advice about that.
During my freshmen year i injured my ankle and knee during a pickup game prior to tryouts so i had to sitout a year. It made me hungrier and work harder- but i also had to wait a little bit and do a lot of different stretching exercises that my doctor had reccommended. I love my health more than my love for ball- but i think there's a way to keep playing and to make sure you don't do any permanent serious damage.
Hope that helps. Kindly,
Nickster

No, he's now too previous to play. He ought to, whether that is not a smart flow by employing him because of the fact it may taint his legacy with the Bulls. enable's settle for it, he's not a sturdy vice president of basketball operations (as considered with the Wizards) and did no help whilst he performed, merely have been given human beings in the seats. He placed the corporate in a worse place whilst he left.

If the injury's too serious and the therapist say you should take a rest then wise thing is to take a stop.
Or else may end up not being able to play ball again for the rest of your life, imagine that.

Do not play immediately. Wait a year while watching the pros and just doing some light drills. Never get too intense, but yes, keep playing if your family can afford all that surgery.

Don't let anything stop you from playing the sport/doing something you love. I could get 10 serious injuries and I'd still continue. I say it's worth it.

Just give it some time and see. Sometimes your foot just needs some time to heal. You be ok; in a few weeks or months you'll be playing again. Trust me!!!
take care!
