    I’m sorry what? Such a casual way to say a player in the NBA got hit by a car

  3. Balls_of_Adamanthium

    What the fuck this came out of nowhere. Was having the best start of his career. Never know when shit can go down.

    WTF let’s hope this isn’t as serious as the wording suggests

  5. MrAppleSpoink

    Damn, hope he’s alright.

    Sometimes these guys seem so far removed from normal life that you forget things like this can still happen at any moment.

    this is so terrible to hear, praying for him 🙏 ❤️

    Follow-ups from Woj in the replies to his original tweet:

    > Representatives from the team, including 76ers President Daryl Morey, are with Oubre Jr., at the hospital. He is expected to miss significant time due to his injuries, but those aren’t considered to be season-ending. Local authorities are investigating the incident.

    > Oubre Jr., was walking near his residence when struck, the spokesman said.

    What the fuck is wrong with people. How do you hit someone with a car when they’re walking to their home?

  14. PootieTooGood

    The guy who hit him better leave philly

    what the heck?

    This feels like a randomly generated headline in 2K

    We finally get someone who can score off the bench and he gets hit by a car. The sixers are cursed.

    Shitty drivers, man. Hope he’s alright and doesn’t have any lasting injuries
