Found October 14, 2009 on Basketbawful:
It looks like I have a new entry for the Basketbawful Stupid Injury Hall of Shame: Sacramento's Francisco Garcia broke his arm lifting weights on what I have to assume is a physioball composed of purest evil and terror. Kind of like the Sentry Sphere from Phantasm and the torture ball from Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. Maybe even kind of like the tomatoes from Attack of the Killer Tomoatoes...but I might be stretching my analogies a little thin here.According to Kings spokesman Darrin May, Garcia will spend eight weeks in a cast and is expected to miss at least four months of action. Or, in the Kings' case, lacktion.And now, to cover for Garcia's facepalm, the Kings organization has removed all exercise balls from their weight room and Kings co-owner Joe Maloof "ordered an e-mail sent to the NBA's other 29 teams" to warn about the deadly perils of physioballing.Hat tip: chris, Sactown Royalty, Ball Don't Lie.
