Shaun Livingston Medical Update

Found March 01, 2007 on Clippers TopBuzz:
PLAYERS: Shaun Livingston
TEAMS: Los Angeles Clippers

Believe it or not, Livingston's injury sounds just as bad as it looked. Have you ever heard of anyone doing this much damage to his leg. I don't think there was anything else left to ruin. The recovery time is 8-12 months which puts him on pace for a post 2008 All-Star break return. "The MRI revealed that Livingston suffered tears to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), medial collateral ligament (MCL) and lateral meniscus. Livingston also suffered a patella dislocation, in addition to the previously diagnosed tibia/femoral dislocation."

Livingston's out for a long, long time

Via latimes.com  |  March 01, 2007
Ouch. After that awful looking injury, Livingston's career could potentially be over. He tore three ligaments, and won't be able to do anything basketball related for a year after the surgery. He's still plenty young, 21, but this is going to be a tough row to hoe. This freak accident is devastating for the Clips. Livingston has never been healthy since he came into...
