Grant Hill: Misdiagnosis Destroyed Ankle, Career

Grant Hill, on Jason Whitlock’s podcast, said the Detroit Pistons mismanaged his ankle injury, possibly due to standard Isiah Thomas set. PistonPowered has the transcript: “‘I (had been) told everything was fine. I even found out that certain team doctors were questioning whether I was really hurt, thinking I was soft or whatever. This was after I had pulled myself from Game 2 against the Heat. At that time, when I found out I had broken my ankle, as crazy as this sounds, I was relieved. I finally had some confirmation, I finally had proof that I’m really not making it up.'”
