WARNING: The following photo is not for the faint of heart.
On Sunday, Louisville guard Kevin Ware suffered a compound fracture of the tibia and fibia when he fell awkwardly after attempting to block a shot in his team’s Elite 8 game against Duke.
Video of the gruesome injury went viral, as Ware was rushed to the hospital and underwent surgery that night.
He has since left and is expected to join his teammates this weekend in Atlanta… which is astounding, considering the horrific nature of the injury. We’ve posted a close-up photo of the break below:
