We’re going to take a deep dive into the ups and downs of the career of Shaun Livingston

Livingston hails from Peoria, Ill., home of the late comedian Richard Pryor. After starring at Peoria Central High and leading the school to back-to-back titles, Shaun was named “Mr. Basketball of Illlinois” and named a McDonald’s All-American. ‘Rivals.com,’ named him the ‘no.1 point guard’ in college basketball and the ‘no. 2 overall player’ in the country. He was offered a basketball scholarship to play for coach K at ‘Duke University,’ but he decided to skip college and went straight for the ‘NBA Draft – it was one of those rare moments in NBA history that a player was drafted directly out of high school. Shaun stood at 6’11 and had insane guard skills, so it’s safe to say that the right decision was made for him to take his talents straight to the league. He was drafted with the fourth overall pick of the 2004 draft by the Los Angeles Clippers at just 18 years old. His entry helped the Clippers to have their best season thus far in 2005-06, playing a huge role in his team’s success and being consistent whenever he stepped on the court. During his first two seasons, he played 91 games and scored with an average of 6.3 points per game. It was pretty good average considering the fact that he played point guard most games and wasn’t expected to stuff the stat sheet with points. While he did play well in his first two or three seasons, he did have some nagging injuries that kept him from being active as much as he’d like.

After some of the growing pains, the Clippers were hoping for a breakthrough season for Livingston until the nightmare of his life arrived on Feb. 26, 2007.

The Clippers were playing the Charlotte Bobcats, and Shaun was on a fastbreak. HE put up a contested layup, and landed really awkwardly on that left leg. Along with a dislocated left knee cap and broken left leg, Livingston tore his anterior cruciate ligament, posterior cruciate ligament and lateral meniscus. He also badly sprained his medial collateral ligament. Now I’m no doctor, but I’d say breaking your leg in 4 different places has got to be painful…

The replay was so horrific that ESPNEWS warned viewers before showing it. Tests were done to make sure there wasn’t a need for amputation. There was legitimately a point where Shaun thought the leg would need to be completely amputated.

Through this injury came a long road to recovery, starting with him having to learn to walk again. The bright side was that he was just 21 years old.

Livingston missed the entire 2007-08 NBA season, finally returning to basketball activities on June 16, 2008 about 16 months after the injury. The Clippers didn’t make Livingston a qualifying offer when his contract expired after the 2007-08 season and he became an unrestricted free agent.

Livingston considered playing overseas next, with a lot of uncertainty about the future looming over him. Instead, he parlayed two 10-day contracts with the Washington Wizards into a contract for the remainder of the 2009-10 season. Livingston started 18 of the 26 games with the Wiz, averaging about nine points and four assists in 26 minutes per game. This seemed like a turning point for a great bounce back. It eventually earned him a two-year, million dollar contract from Michael Jordan and the Bobcats — the very same team that his gruesome injury came against.

His stay didn’t last long, however. He was waived after being traded twice during the summer of 2012. He re-joined the Wizards on Nov. 15, 2012 and was cut two days before Christmas. The holidays were not very kind for Shaun Livingston, I mean golly! The Cleveland Cavaliers claimed him off waivers days later.

Nine years in to his NBA career, Livingston seemed finally healthy and able to reach his somewhat of his potential with the Brooklyn Nets during the 2013-14 season. He averaged 8.3 points and 3.2 assists off the bench while playing a then career-high 76 games. The Warriors were actually interested in signing Livingston before he signed with the Nets to be the backup to Steph Curry. Golden State inked Livingston to a three-year, .3 million contract on July 11, 2014. He ended up winning three championships, and was a vital role in each and every one of them.

“I want people to use my story to stand up, be strong-willed and persevere,” he says. When the chips are down, I want you to understand the type of person I am.”

===================

10 Death from Hamster Spit
Goro Ito, from Japan, Died after his pet hamster named Aiko bit him. The autopsy showed that he had died after reacting to a protein in the hamster’s saliva that brought about a case of anaphylaxis

9 Death from Peacock Scratch
On March 30, 1997, Vichai Thongto from Thailand was feeding the family’s four peacocks when one clawed at his head. He soon began suffering headaches and fell into a coma. A hospital scan showed a blood clot on his brain due to the peacock’s scratch. He died the next day.

8 Death from Deodorant
Jonathan Capewell from Oldham England was obsessed with smelling fresh and would cover his entire body with deodorant at least twice a day. He died July 20th, 1998 from a heart attack after the deodorant gasses built up in his body over months of repeatedly spraying himself in his unventilated bathroom.

7 Death from Manners
Tycho Brahe, a Danish nobleman and astronomer, died October 24, 1601 from bladder complications after attending a banquet where he refused to use the restroom knowing that it was impolite to leave before the meal was done. After the banquet Tycho no longer was able to urinate, and 10 days later he died. It is reported that he wrote his own epitaph, stating “He lived like a sage and died like a fool.”

6 Death by Dessert
Adolf Frederick, the King of Sweden, ate himself to death in 1771 after having a meal consisting of lobster, caviar, sauerkraut, cabbage soup, smoked herring, champagne, and 14 servings of his favorite dessert, Selma (Bread dipped in a bowl of hot milk) He is known by Swedish children as “The King that Ate Himself to Death”
I wonder if Tycho Brahe was at that meal because that would have taken a while…

5 Death by Laughter
On 24th of March 1975, Alex Mitchell passed away after watching the “Kung Fu Kapers” episode of The Goodies. Reportedly, due to the TV episode, Mitchell laughed continuously for 25 minutes, and finally fell dead on the sofa from heart failure. His widow later sent a thank you letter to The Goodies for making Mitchell’s final moments of life so pleasant.

4 Death by Fastball
At the top of the 5th inning, Ray “Chappie” Chapman, shortstop for the Cleveland Indians baseball team, was hit by a submarine ball thrown by Carl Mays. The Baseball hit Chapman in the temple. Chapman collapsed and died August 17, 1920, about 12 hours later. He remains the only baseball player killed by a pitched ball.

3 Death from Frustration
Jack Daniel, yes, THE Jack Daniel, died of blood poisoning the originated in his toe. One early morning in 1911, Jack daniel kicked his office safe in anger, because he couldn’t remember the combination to open it. That anger and a powerful kick to the safe resulted in an infection in his toe and ultimately his death. His last words were, “One last drink, please.”

2 Death by Tongue
Allan Pinkerton, the founder of the famous Pinkerton detective agency, died in Chicago in 1884 after he slipped on the pavement and severely bit down on his tongue. Due to the bit, his tongue became infected with gangrene, which resulted in his untimely death.

1 Death by Irony
Bobby Leach was one of the greatest dare devils to ever live. He would regularly perform death defying stunts and was only the second person in history to go over the side of the Niagara Falls in a barrel. One day, however, while walking down a quiet street in New Zealand, Leach slipped on an orange peel, broke his leg, and died due to complications that he developed afterwards.

ANKLE SPRAINS
Like most sports, ankle sprains are common volleyball injuries. Athletes can land awkwardly from jumps. They can turn their ankle landing on another player’s foot. While these ankle sprains rarely need surgery, they can lead to weeks off the court.

ACL INJURIES
These knee injuries can sideline an athlete for an entire season and require surgery and months of rehab. ACL injuries are especially common in female athletes who must land from jumps in their sport, so it should be no surprise that they are common in this sport.

FINGER INJURIES
Fractures, dislocations, and tendon and ligament tears in the fingers are common as players try to hit a ball moving at fast speeds.

SHOULDER IMPINGEMENT
The shoulder is a common site for overuse problems in volleyball players. Often athletes develop internal impingement from the repetitive overhead motions. Fortunately, rest and physical therapy can help them overcome the pain. Occasionally more serious shoulder injuries, like SLAP tears, can develop.

LOW BACK PAIN
The repetitive hyperextension of the lumbar spine with spiking and blocking can cause low back pain. Most of the cases are muscular and resolve with rest and physical therapy. Occasionally, spondylolysis, which is a stress injury to a small bony area in the lumbar spine, can develop and require a long absence from the sport.

PATELLAR TENDINITIS
This overuse knee injury is common in athletes who play jumping sports, like basketball and volleyball. The athlete will notice pain below the kneecap during practice and games that initially improves with rest. Patellar tendinitis can start to limit performance over time. Often rest, ice, counterforce straps and physical therapy can help resolve the knee pain.
