Brazilian point guard Raulzinho suffered an unexpected setback during Brazil’s first game at the Basketball World Cup, leaving basketball fans in a panic. The explosive athlete twisted his floor shoes, which caused instant concern among the fans and tеammatеs. However, the tough athlete showed determination by having successful surgery to repair the injuries.
The injury occurred during Brazil’s match against Iran on Saturday,
which culminated in a crushing 100-59 victory for the Brazilian team
. Raulzinho’s injury in the third quarter not only represented a turning point in the game, but also cast doubt on his immediate future as a player. The severity of patellar disease tends to become a medical problem, which led to surgery on Tuesday night in Utah, USA. This procedure was clearly successful, giving hope for the future of Raulzinho’s career.
