Yesterday, some former University of Kentucky players took part in an exhibition game against a team from the Dominican Republic.
During the game, Kentucky's DeMarcus Cousins got a little handsy with current teammate Francisco Garcia and appears to toss him.

When you hear “strained left calf” you think alright, he’ll miss a week or so, maybe longer if it’s a bad one. Six weeks ago, Francisco Garcia went down with a relatively innocuous seeming calf injury…he has yet to set foot back on the floor for a game.

Francisco Garcia and the Physioball of Doom
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.
