face plant

[fidgety]

I was shooting a regional game earlier this week and when the player in orange went up for a shot the player in white went for the block but ended up plastering his face into the bottom of the backboard. I know those things are cushioned but that's still gotta hurt.

I'm sorry but I could not help but chuckle. Nice capture. It does look painful though

[BlueRob]

Ouch!! Nice grab.

Great catch Chris. I've wondered why you don't see more of that as high as todays athletes get into the air.

That does look painful! Great capture, wouldn't want to be him at that moment.

that looks like a black eye! haha

gosh, good shot. wish the person hitting the back board was in focus a bit more.

Ouch! Took me a couple of looks to see it. That looks painful

Good job on your part, though

I'm so slooooooooooooooooow. I'm looking and looking at the guys arm batting the ball and wondering why that's a face plant..... Um, I see it now! Did he break his nose?

He didn't appear hurt too bad by it, just a tad shaken up.
