VIDEO: John Wall fearlessly attacks the basket despite fractured hand
Geoff Burke-USA TODAY Sports
John Wall is superhuman.
Wall is playing in Game 5 despite five non-displaced fractures in his left hand. Ordinarily, the injury would require four to six weeks of rest to heal, but Wall is no ordinary player.
Not only is Wall playing on Wednesday, the lightning-quick guard is leaving it all on the floor, attacking the basket early and relentlessly pushing the tempo.
Wall's first basket was easy enough. He raced out ahead of the pack and had time to adjust to finish with his right hand.
However, Wall showed no fear, nor ill-effects of finishing with his injured left hand. He took off for an aggressive drive with his left for his second bucket, before crashing to the floor.
