The Oregonian
Share

from
the Orlando Sentinel
Share
  
The Orlando Magic know all too well just how easily NBA players can injure their ankles. The
team received another reminder when Vince Carter sprained his left ankle for the second time this season. The injury occurred as Carter drove to the hoop; as Taj Gibson was guarding him, Carter's left foot stepped on one of John Salmons' feet. He's not the only star NBA player who has battled ankle injuries since training camps opened in late September.
