As a Nuggets fan, I hope he gets better.
As a human, I hope this won't effect him for the rest of his life. He's too young to deal with something like that...
Grim Grey same with bol bol, go nuggets!
Tingleking asmr as a heat fan and just a human too, i hope Bol Bol dominates. Pat Riley is an idiot
Grim Grey fr bro u a good guy
When will you be an ESPN correspondent? Thanks, Doc!
Anywhere but ESPN.. They suck

Keep it up doctor! Best Sports Medicine videos on RUclips!
For sure! I totally agree with you
Better doctor than doctor Phil?
Haha thanks
Foot drop is a popular exam question on med school boards :)
(:(:(:(:(:
I Don't Care lmao chill out
I Don't Care: I’m assuming you didn’t get in?
I Don't Care damn who hurt you lol
I Don't Care oh you MAD mad.....
As a Nuggets fan I really hope that Bol Bol and MPJ will come back healthy and be able to play at a high level.
OnlyJ3r3my Apparently MPJ is back the player he was in high school according to the Nuggets
I saw he was actually on the court running 3’s with his teammates. Hope it lasts he deserves a legitimate chance to play.
Please never stop making content!!! Love this stuff
Great full education through your videos. Thanks a lot.
You are one of my favorite people to watch, you explain everything perfect and it is amazing.
Just want to say that ever since your session on BBallBreakdown, I've pretty much binged your whole channel...😂😂🤣
Every time you talk about a particular muscle, I find myself searching for it and doing the action the muscle does...😂😂🤣...great channel.
You do such a great job of breaking things down, that is such an underrated skill. You deserve more subs 🙏
Haha appreciate it, thanks!!
didn't expect it could be explained in a way that I would understand it.. great job!
Great video Doc keep up the great job
Really amazing explanation!
damn, MPJr was definitely my favorite player in that draft, kinda sad he just been unlucky with all the injuries, hopfully he can get back to 100%, really wanna see him out there
This is so helpful. On a somewhat unrelated level, my grandmother has foot drop and I’ve always been curious as to what could’ve caused it.
Your killing it bro on RUclips! Keep up the great work
I was praying at the beginning of video that it shouldn't be serious when doc started explaining stuff !
Excited to see my man Michael porter.jr in NBA🤘🤘👍
Bro I love this page. You a beast man
Wow it’s crazy how the body can be damaged!!! Thank you for always going in depth with great information about these unfortunate injuries with athletes !!!!
This dude is still gonna be a beast. Cant wait to see him going forward
"A foot drop is exactly what it sounds like"
I was gonna ask about this when the news broke out but thought you'll cover it sooner or later
Your editing, knowledge, communication, dedication on top of how busy you must be outside of RUclips is amazing. I see nothing less than huge success on RUclips.
Hopefully you give yourself enough time to sleep!!
Thanks! Yep, always put work first 👍helps to have a hobby that overlaps so well!
Hey Doc! Love the videos, while watching this it just blew my mind how much knowledge doctors have stored in their head! Do you do research on these certain injury’s prior to making a video or are some of these off pure memory/knowledge
This happened to Henry Cejudo in the second fight with Demetrious Johnson because of a leg kick. This would be a great mma injury video to cover.
I just got flashbacks of all the dorsiflexion training I had to do after a maisonneuve injury and tightrope fixation. I adored (not really) just tripping over flat ground if I wasn't focusing on each step.
Great video! I’m hoping you do another video on Alex Smith.
Do Chuma Okeke ACL tear.... He just got drafted in the NBA
He has other videos up about ACL tears
No offense but ACL tears aren’t that special they’re all the same, happens to a lot of players
Pretty cool when you find channels that aren't assembly line cookie cutter versions of 1000 other channels. Earned that sub. Keep it up. What's up doc
Ayyyee beard shadow!!! You should grow it out haha. Probably not very professional but it'd look dope!
Hey Doc love your vids! Who’s injury history is more concerning to you, Embiids or MPJ???
Before the draft last year I saw MPJRs highlights and as soon as I see those turning fadeaway jumpers I decided that he is an upcoming star in the league. But then I heard his injury. It made me sad because an opportunity to witness greatness might have been compomised. I wish him all the best. I hope NBA fans could see his full potential in the league. Best of luck MPJR.
i have no idea what he was talking about, but i completely understood what he was saying. if that makes sense 🤔
It doesn't. But you do you dude.
I haven't been able to decide if "you do you" is an apathetic way of showing your disinterest in any particular activity choice or action someone is engaging in or a passive aggressive way of telling someone to go fuck themselves.
Chuck Normis I believe it’s the latter
Naw, it's me saying that It doesn't matter if it makes sense ir not, I'm not gonna hate on him for it and that's alright. Man you guys are cynical.
Tnk4me a lot of people in my life have described me as such
Do a breakdown of Prince Fielder career ending neck injury
facts would be great video
I follow Notre Dame football closely and it was tough seeing Jaylon Smith getting hurt in the last game of his collegiate career. At one point in his recovery, there was fear that his nerves would never regenerate and he'd always have a drop foot. Luckily, he recovered completely after 2 years and is now on track to becoming the best MLB in NFL.
Thank you
I liked to see a video of the fall of Bol Bol from projected lottery pick to the second round because of his injury.
No with the music Doc. But Love the content as always 🙏🏽
hoping you can make a vid on Cameron Maybin’s (New York yankees) injuries. no videos yet on the apparent leg injury but may have been caused by the pushoff or sudden deceleration upon reaching on base.
Hey Doc. Apparently MPJ was scratched from the Summer League due to a left knee strain. Do you happen to have insight as to which foot the drop drop brace was for, and, in your opinion, did wearing the brace put him at risk of a knee injury?
After Jaylon Smith's injury and come back he wasn't the same. Look at him at Notre Dame compared to how he plays in Dallas. That injury he suffered in that bowl game versus Ohio State took away some of his explosiveness.
I had this foot drop and it was pinpointed between my knee and ankle after ruling out my L4 and L5. They recommended therapy to help strengthen my ankle but what I really noticed improvement was when I started stimulation treatments on the calf muscle. The stimulation helped the nerve heal and my drop foot went away after 6 weeks of treatments.
I'm having foot drop bro..no one should go through this crap , I'm glad that your foot drop healed can you please advise what time of stimulation you did or which clinic you went through? Thank you.
I would like a video on initial disc surgery.
Nice...ty for doing what you do...I was 100th like
A professional skateboarder named mike mo capaldi also has foot drop u should look into that doc he uses a brace now to pick his foot back up when he skates
Can you do some more common injuries like why it hurts so bad to be kneed in the thigh or jammed fingers?
I have severe foot drop from CMT. I was wanting to purchase a similar brace for hiking, playing sports, even long walks do you know the brand he is using that can handle the type of stress he is applying to it. Thank you again.
My concern would be how it affects his athleticism.. the bracing restricts plantarflexion right...? which is so important for a powerful push off for running and jumping. He’s not going to be very explosive in comparison.
Can you do Osgood-Schlatter disease next?
Doc please make a video about Tj Ford's career ending injury.
I have a foot drop where the outside of my foot points much lower than the inside of my foot. It's also hard to point my foot/ankle up because the outside "ball" of my ankle seems to be blocking my tendon only until I hear a pop or click from the outside "ball" of my ankle can I point my foot fully up. This condition does not hurt but had resulted in me twisting my ankle again and again to no end.
Would be grateful if you can point to me one of your videos that talks about this.
I had foot drop, i couldnt bend my foot upwards and it dragged like a zombie.
It took over a year to fully heal. Nerves heal super slowly!
Currently undergoing the same issue, AFO braces aren’t the best for basketball personally in my opinion, having played with one.
I assess and fit AFOs every week, you wouldnt be allowed to wear one for playing organised basketball competition, as it could cause injury to others.
@@paulranalli3367 I was given a flexible one which you insert in to your basketball shoe not the plastic ones, was never told anything about not being allowed to wear that one in games
Can you do Bol Bol?
Dude is soooooo talented
As someone who is studying medicine sir I do have a question , disc herniation can be recovered it self without a surgery , within a 2-4 months max with , surgery it makes the case so much complex , this case is just so bad foot drop is a very serious condition or a symptom for a basketball player .... He probably will miss a good chunk of this season ....
Do you think the Denver nuggets medical staff just destroyed mpjr career ?
Sorry I didn't mention disc herniation can heal itself with the help of physiotherapy to strengthen the back muscles
Hopefully this won't be a huge issue going forward. Can't wait to see him in Summer League.
I hope he gets healthy I want to see him play well
Ok its light. I thought its going to be a complicated injury. Mpj is going to recover fully, hopefully.
Holy shit just reading the title made me feel bad for this guy
Man the Nuggets really like taking chances on great injured high school players.
In their defense, the Nuggets aren't drafting these guys very high
Memestiff they also dont need them lol
Saad Murt they need porter to go the next level.
Sam Oso na they need to get tobias harris thats it
Silver Soul thats too many light skin niggas on one team.
And my foot drop came before my two back surgeries
Dumb question, but if you're not an athlete, do you also have to wear the brace? I also assume you can do some sort of physical therapy to stabilize the foot.
b3rni3mac2 nah my girl has it and she is still in a brace
Jaylon smith had this... took him about 2 years to back to playing form but it happened he should see his doctor
This sucks. This guy is a true talent and I've been anticipating him playing in the NBA since he was in high school. Hope everything gets better for him he is a future superstar.
🐐
From the videos you showed i thought it was his Right Foot
256 likes and 0 dislikes! impressive
Not sure whether I'm the first one to say this but there's a lot of resemblance in terms of looks between you and Stephen from Heat Check 😂
Seen a recent video of him balling out, dont see no foot drop anywhere 🤔
Huh...I watched all your videos already and would like some more please
It would be nice if there's a 3d animation of what exactly happens if you have a foot drop and compare it to a normal foot.
It would, but I don't have the time or knowledge to make that :/
I’m confused about how a disc herniation and subsequent radiculopathy doesn’t affect more of the muscles innervated by that particular root. For example, if the L5 root is being compressed/irritated then surely all the muscles along that path should be disrupted, including the glutes, biceps femoris, semitendinosus, ect ect... what am i missing here?
IMO becuse only both tibialis are innervated predominantly by L5, all the other muscles are innervated generaly by 3 different roots. Probably in MPJ case we are talking about a mild radiculophaty, so all the other muscles that you're mentioning aren't so much affected due to the sufficient compensation by the activity of the other complementary roots.
(Hope you understand what i'm traing to explain, It's hard to talk about medical stuff when english isn't your main language)
@@Noler18 thanks for the reply and yeah it does make sense! So do the other nerves take on more of the load and adapt (neuroplasticity?) Or is L5 already playing a minor role in the stimulation of the other muscles that MPJ wouldn't notice weakness?
@@felixtheschon probably L5 is still having a minor role, but if the radiculopathy continue to get worse the deficit will become so big that the weakness may not be compensated by the activity of the complementary roots
@@Noler18 Got it. Thanks for the help man. Much appreciated
But I had saw a report that he was clear to play and that he was going to be in the summer league? Does this mean he’s out again?
No, he's playing, just has to wear a brace to keep from tripping over his foot
Is it normal for me to still have pain herniating down to both my heels after have L4 L5 microdiscectomy 5 weeks ago?
Louie Vision How are you feeling now?
Do Shaun Livingston
Peroneal.. doc is old school. Call it fibular nerve ;)
DO BOL BOL FOOT INJURY. IS HE GONE BE ABKE TO PLAY? I AM MADE WE (HEAT) TRADED HIM TO THE NUGGETS. I THINK HE IS GONE BE GREAT PLAYER
After 3:25 he actually travels. Look closely!
That would never get called
Had to get foot drop splints for my sister after she was bedridden from a stroke.
One foot is bouncing back the other is landing straight down meaning this was a problem the whole time he’s tryna hide it well the organization is this makes me feel sorry I hope he makes it thru
I'd rather rest him longer and don't rush to play him in the season. Let the nerves recover normally. Playing with a brace is still nothing compared to playing without it.
Makes you think, would physical therapy been more beneficial for him instead of 2 back surgeries?
So apparently Matt Stafford played with a broken back. Potential video discussing this?
No he doesn’t win anything
Pretty sure it’s mostly L4. L5 is the extensor hallucis longues muscle and S1 is plantar flexion.
Based on sci exam, yes, but clinically l5 radic often causes foot drop. Also an l4-5 herniation is more likely to pick off l5
Brian Sutterer MD indeed but we must differentiate nerve root and vertebrae level as indeed the nerve impingement occurs the level above its exit, ie: L3-L4 herniation causes mostly L4 nerve root compression
Oops I dropped my foot
i really feel bad for this guy. this guy has a serious spinal injury that will affect him throughout his life and now he has more. i hope this guy has at least 2-4 good seasons in the nba.
LONGER VIIIIIDSSSS
why would anyone even dislike this like wth is wrong with you lmao
I honestly wouldn’t even play on it yall seen what happened to KD
I don’t know what a foot drop sounds like lmao
You've changed bro
How so?
He moved to a new place! That must be what you've noticed. Different ambiance. :P~
better tumbnail
Kirby puckett eye injury
Damn damn damn. Isn’t this what Jay Williams had?
Hope it doesn't get worse. He'll be running like Professor X up the steps in Dark Phoenix.
Omg spoiler alert much?
You actually watched that
John wall 👀🤷🏻♂️
Just the idea of foot drop scares me. Isn’t that what Greg oden had?
If he is healthy there is much potential for the nuggets
2 back surgery and foot problem yeah he should save his money
