Heat player Dru Smith suffered a severe right knee sprain when he stepped on a “piece of paper” during a game against the Cavaliers on the 23rd. He was dismissed early for the season. Heat coach Erik Spoelstra directly criticized this. Pitch: “This injury is avoidable”.
In order to prevent his opponent from outside shooting, Smith took off to cover the hot pot. At this time, he happened to be in the bench area on the sidelines. When he landed, he stepped on a “piece of white paper” under the chair. As a result, his foot slipped and stepped on the high drop area on the edge of the court. He fell to the ground in pain and was helped off the field. The Heat announced on the 25th that Smith was diagnosed with a “severe cruciate ligament sprain in his right knee.” He had to undergo surgery and was reimbursed early this season.
Heat coach Spoelstra pointed out: “It is really heartbreaking news. This kind of injury can be avoided. The problem lies in the fact that Cavaliers Stadium has the only 8-inch (20.32 centimeters) height difference at the edge of the bench in the league.” Comment: “This floor is very dangerous. In the past few years, players have had several close calls here when they were trying to defend the bottom line for three-pointers. They were not injured until the close call, but accidents are just waiting to happen.”
The 25-year-old Smith is 188 centimeters tall. He was undrafted in the 2021 NBA draft. He briefly played for the Heat and Nets for a few games. He signed a two-way contract with the Heat in early July this year. He has currently played in 9 games, averaging 4.3 points and 1.6 rebounds per game. , 1.6 assists, and a shooting percentage of 4.55%.
