Maryland Star Forward Pharrel Payne Suffers One Of The Scariest Looking Sack-Splitting Injuries
20 days ago
Maryland star forward Pharrel Payne was injured on a very frightening spill during Saturday’s game.
Payne and the Terrapins faced off on Saturday against the Marquette Golden Eagles. In the second half at Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, Wisc., Payne threw down a thunderous dunk and came down on the foot of Marquette’s Joshua Clark (who was trying to get out of the way) as he let go of the rim.
As a result, Payne slipped and fell to the hardwood with his body crumpling very awkwardly as a result.
Payne entered play on Saturday as Maryland’s leading scorer and rebounder with 20.0 points and 8.0 rebounds per game. But now it looks like he is set to miss some time after the extremely unlucky landing, which was reminiscent of the dunk-attempt injury that we saw in the NBA last season.
