Shocking! He's easily one of the best players in the NBA. Sucks that he is still pretty young and could have more than a few years left in him to become an all time great. Great player's career cut short by injury. All the best for him

Sad to hear although he hasn't really had a good past 2 years with the injuries but hope he excels in his new role
