Definitely a cautionary tale, Lonzo Ball, is…injuries do happen, but not necessarily from overzealous and ill-advised promotion of a very bad shoe (aw, c’mon Dad).
This is somewhat reminiscent of the Greg Cook story…a short-lived career for what appeared to be a generational QB talent for the ‘69 bengals…an undiagnosed torn rotator cuff his rookie year masked with cortisone shots…never to return to form, struggling over the next 4 seasons & forced to leave the game.

Both stories are tragic.
Thank you Mark. So sobering.
