With Durant's outstanding performance this season, many fans think that the player can still return to the top after a major injury, but is this really the case? How many players in the history of the NBA can be like Durant? The answer is obviously very few, recently, the Us media has taken stock of several players who have been destroyed by injuries, and if they are not injured, I am afraid that they will also be historical stars.
First of all, Brandon Roy, Roy can definitely be said to be one of the geniuses ruined by injuries, after entering the league in 2006, he was selected into the All-Star team in 2008 to 10 years, and even once was considered to be Kobe's successor, and was also crowned the title of Yellow Mamba, but the day was not as expected, in 11 years, the 27-year-old Roy announced his retirement due to injury, and then, although he also experienced a short comeback, he was finally defeated by injuries.
The second is Maddy, although he has achieved a high degree in the history of the NBA, 35 seconds and 13 minutes has become a legend in the history of the NBA, but Maddy can become a better player with his talent, and even have the opportunity to be compared with Kobe, but it is precisely because of injuries that Maddy suffered later in his career, and thus missed the championship, and finally became the biggest regret in his heart.
And Rose, how good Rose's ability is Many fans have seen, the youngest MVP in NBA history, with a sharp breakthrough and explosive physical fitness, after joining the Bulls, it also once made people see the hope of the revival of the Bulls Dynasty, but after only a few brilliant seasons, Rose has been constantly tormented by injuries, although it is currently one of the Knicks' most trusted guards, but it has become invisible in the league.
Grant Hill, as a contemporary of Jordan, Hill and Jordan have the same outstanding talent, and used to be considered Jordan's successor, indeed, the early Hill showed such talent on the field, seven times in his career to the All-Star Team, and even defeated Michael Jordan in 96 to become the ticket king, his excellence can be imagined. However, due to the impact of injuries, he constantly wandered through the league and became a famous glassman, and a basketball genius did not reach the heights he should have.
Finally, there is Pence Hardaway, also known as a player who can compete with Jordan if he is not injured, he led the team to the Finals in the second season of his career, and was selected as an All-Star for four consecutive seasons, which proved that Hardaway's strength was outstanding, but when he entered the peak of his career, Hardaway was affected by injuries that were enough to destroy his career, although he eventually became a Hall of Fame player, but the state of his career was by no means his true strength.
