It looked horrible - he was in a huge amount of pain and when the guys came over to him he told them in no uncertain terms that "it was ____ bad"
after the game one of the Crocs guys simply said "yeah it's bad"
Fingers crossed he can come back from it ASAP as he was playing really well and the Crocs will miss him

Hope Hinder gets back soon, always bad to see guys get hurt pre-season, like Herbert last season.
A spot for Holmes to play PF for the crocs?

any short story on the incident? bad landing, two players colliding after loose ball etc
Mark Worthington on Twitter:
"He snapped his leg clean thru"
Holmes would be a very ordinary replacement! What is Hinder worth points wise??

Jesus, must have been a big incident whatever it was that happened. pre season tournaments really take their toll on teams.

He had off season surgery to re-align his patella tendon and had screws inserted to hold it back in place.
Same leg
Crocs will release a statement Saturday about it, not good tho...

few big man still available - holmes, vanderjagt, vasiljevic, sam harris, ben knight
Hope they sign Holmes as a replacement - he is too good to be out of the league

Ben Knight would be a more than handy replacement.
I was hoping he would be the man the Tigers would sign after Mills heads back the US.
Lack of size will destroy the Tigers this season.
Oh please, Jacob Holmes is not that good. They would be best to go for a team player in Ben Knight at this point.

As a crocs supporter I'd Personally rather J holmes, mostly for his D and rebounding. Crocs have been crunched on the boards so far in the pre season and neither Schensh or Allen are real board bunnies. Need an experienced big who can regularly get 8-10 boards a game and Holmes has made a career out of it.

Agreed kr. Ben Knight has passed it. He looks like an old man when he runs!

Apparently he snapped his leg where the screws were inserted...ouch! Would not wish that on anyone.
Looks like his career may be over.
