"Snake breakthrough can still play like this?" After landing, Meng Xu was also a little surprised. When he was about to collide with Rick Schmitz in the air just now, Meng Xu thought he was going to make a mistake. Small in stature, if Rick Schmitz pretends to be a cripple, he will be knocked half to death. At this time, Meng Xu remembered that he had not used one change of direction, so he tried it out on the principle of giving it a try. To Meng Xu's expectation, although he couldn't make that kind of weird big change of direction in the air, it made Meng Xu drift for a long distance towards the side of the change direction. In Meng Xu's memory, it was only Only a god-man like Jordan with the abnormal ability to stay in the air can make such a large-scale drift.

"Reggie, are you okay?" After Meng Xu came over, Reggie Miller's teammates also surrounded him, but no one attacked Meng Xu, but asked about Miller's injury with concern.

But Reggie Miller gritted his teeth, curled up, and hugged his ankle with both hands, without any response. It can be seen that Reggie Miller's injury is very serious.

When the tearful Reggie Miller was carried out on a stretcher by the on-site staff, all the fans of the Bankers Life players stood up and shouted Reggie Miller's name in unison. Meng Xu was also very shocked by this scene. .

. . . . . .

"Unfortunately, Reggie's ankle was injured. The initial diagnosis may take 5 to 7 weeks of rest. As for whether surgery is needed, the doctor has not yet determined."
