  2. dameplsrunfromgrind

    Nah the Pelicans gotta switch arenas cause Smoothie King Center is cursed

  3. D09987766

    Damn, I hope this doesn’t mean the end of his career

  4. beatrailblazer

    yikes that sounds scary. he had it happen a few years ago too. hope hes okay

    Anyone know the prognosis?

  5. jesus man… this is the second time this has happened surely he has some kinda of underlying health issue?

  6. mMounirM

    hasn’t this already happened to him before?

  7. PipBoy808

    2K’s favourite injury strikes again.

  8. 2coolcaterpillar

    How can a collapsed lung be small?

  9. Impossible-Reach-649

    Really hope he’s OK WTF happened

  10. Stratys

    Damn hope he’s good. Did I miss an injury in a game or was this caused from something else?

  11. ajmcgill

    Dude this is the 2nd time this has happened to CJ wtf

  12. __john_cena__

    He had the same injury 2 years ago during COVID. Hopefully he’s ok because twice is scary.

  13. fireglz

    Keep him away from the Chargers medical staff.

  14. lets_talk_basketball

    Didn’t this happen awhile ago? Is it something structural/anatomical that makes you more susceptible to this happening?

  15. Derriosgaming

    What is a large collapsed ring lung?

  16. Balsamic_ducks

    Being a fan of this team is like getting kicked in the nuts over and over

  17. imminentjogger5

    didnt that happen to him before?

  18. trevortins

    Damn wtf the pelicans must be the new clippers cause they definitely have some type of curse. Hope he can recover quickly.

  19. commonguy001

    It happened the end of 2021 when he was a blazer as well.

  20. solonharmony

    Twice is worrying. Hopefully it doesn’t become a thing for him

  21. PandasareBad

    It’s ok it’s only the small lung… da fuck?

  22. DynamixRo

    CJ confirmed for having a small right lung.

  23. CazOnReddit

    The Pelicans have to be cursed, they’ve had unreal bad luck with injuries

    Hope CJ will be alright

  24. cosmic_backlash

    Why don’t they simply take the small lung out and put a big lung in?

  25. reemasrafahlc

    welp, that’s not good. hope he gets better soon.

  26. RocknRoll_Grandma

    Just a small collapsed lung, don’t worry about it. It’s very minor. /s Lol

  27. VoidMageZero

    Wtf, get better dude. My fantasy team is not off to a great start lol.

  28. DoseofDhillon

    Now this might not be as bad as it sounds, like Patrice Bergeron played i think played part of a finals game with a collapsed lung and missed not any time in the regular season, so hopefully its closer to that

  29. _Zap_Rowsdower_

    Didn’t he get this before? Someone else got a collapsed lung i think last season or the one before.

  30. jacobythefirst

    I fell to my knees in a Popeyes 😭😭😭

  31. Fr0_oz3n

    Oh man. Didn’t this happen to him last year too?

  32. MrAppleSpoink

    If I had a nickel for every time CJ McCollum had a collapsed lung, I’d have 2 nickels… which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.

  33. ZootnScoot4pres

    “Small” collapsed lung is atelectasis. Which is a partial lung collapse. Your right lung has 3 lobes and left has 2. Pneumothorax is a complete collapsed lung. Should be a fairly quick turnaround.
