"The doctor said, for his age, he's in extremely good shape and would probably be dead if he wasn't an athlete," longtime friend Andrew Kearns said. "It's going to be a long recovery, unfortunately."
The accident happened about 30 miles southeast of Bol's home in West Hartford.
I hope he gets better and quick. I've always been a mark for Manute ever since those 6 3-pointers. "Manute for three!!!"
