Grant Hill's comeback video from ankle surgery
Grant Hill talks about his journey of overcoming a severe ankle injury, similar to the one Yao Ming was diagnosed with on December 16, 2010. During the first half of his career, things were smooth, but the latter half was a struggle due to injuries. He describes the severity of his injury, comparing it to being cut with a knife or machete. Despite facing life-threatening infections and having screws in his foot and ankle, Hill continued to play at a high level. He reflects that while the injury was detrimental to his basketball career, it significantly contributed to his personal development, making him a better father, husband, teammate, leader, and person overall.
