Hansberry was seen walking yesterday with no crutches and no noticeable
Limp. Don’t know where the ACL rumor even came from, but I think it can be discarded.

you don't need an ACL to walk..

As is true for me.
I can walk without concern over relatively flat, but I struggle when hiking and use a substantial brace. I cannot run or jump. I made the mistake of hopping carefully down from a three feet tall retaining wall once last year. On landing, my lower leg decided to flee the main trunk of my body. That was no fun.

Me too. I tore mine 30 years ago. Never had it repaired. Continued to play
Basketball for 10 years without a brace.

After my ACL, meniscus, and microfracture surgery
I was walking without crutches in a little over a week. Was rehabbing on an elliptical the week after surgery, so he could have easily torn his ACL. I couldn’t play basketball for months and had to have a brace and I wasn’t playing anywhere near the level required to play college basketball. If he had ACL surgery, he has a pretty long rehab in front of him but could easily be walking without crutches or a limp.

Still, could be a good idea to use crutches to deceive our opponents.
If worked for Jerry Lawler and others. ** Edited by KCHokie2 at 4/12/2026, 8:59:53 PM

but you risk overdoing it.......then your crutches become a crutch.
