Amar’e Stoudemire Suffered a Lacerated Left Hand from Punching a Fire Extinguisher


In addition to falling down a hole they seemingly can’t climb out of against the Miami Heat, the New York Knicks may have to try and salvage whatever may be left of their quickly dying season without the services of one Amar’e Stoudemire. An angry STAT inexplicably (and reportedly) punched a fire extinguisher tonight following the Knicks’ Game 2 loss in Miami, and he suffered a lacerated left hand. Per the NY Daily News‘ Frank Isola: “It is confirmed. Amar’e suffered a lacerated hand punching something after the game … Knicks confirm that Amar’e suffered a left hand laceration. Team will not reveal details or open locker room. Complete chaos … There is blood all over the carpet in the locker room … Knicks announce no practice for Tuesday. Hopefully, the CSI Miami investigation will be completed by then … Amar’e hand heavily taped with arm in a sling. Can’t imagine he plays again.”
