Hopefully I'm wrong, but I've seen it too many times.
Just landed awkwardly, and no contact involved. Much like Hookers injury.

ZZ just tore his ACL apparently!

Yea it's not looking good. Awaka looks like he just split the floor with his elbow also.

That's poor timing.
I thought the game was tomorrow until it popped up in my phone so just turned it on. Haven't seen it yet but that sucks for him if so.

That sucks
Man I hope not, hopefully a sprain or tweaked it. It looked to be the knee that he had the brace/sleeve on so maybe it was a previous injury that he aggravated again?
It's official

Hate to hear that. Hope he has a good recovery
I hate it for him. It's a grueling recovery.
Sadly, I've seen it first hand. My oldest daughter tore hers (the first time) just coming to a jump stop her sophomore year of high school. She then tore it two more times in high school, and I think only one involved contact.
Braces help some, but are more psychological when one is returning to play after a knee injury.
Knee ligaments really are the weakest link, and there aren't any exercises, etc that can be done to help prevent them.
It's interesting that females are much more likely to have them than males.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that now, 12 years later, she wishes that she had listened to us when we tried to get her to quit playing after the 2nd one.
