Kyrie Irving tweeted that he is “all good” after a scary looking fall in Team USA’s game against Ukraine left fans wondering about his health.
Irving was going up for a layup in traffic when he fell hard and was escorted to the locker room.
Last month, Irving spoke to For The Win about the chance that he could get injured playing for the team and said that it was a risk he was willing to take.
“I mean it’s just you get the opportunity to represent your country it’s a once in a lifetime thing … it’s something you dream of, it’s something I’ve dreamed of since I was a kid,” he said. “So I take this risk getting hurt but I mean it’s part of the game.”
