In the wake of a tough Achilles injury to Tyrese Haliburton in Game 7 of the NBA Finals, Donnovan poses the question: are these types of injuries becoming more common, especially star players? Jeff Stotts (4:33), owner of In Street Clothes and Injury Analyst for Rotowire, stops by to discuss why this is happening and whether or not star players are being disproportionally affected more these days than in years past. Afterwards, Biosteel Sports founder and Ottawa Senators Director of Player Health and Performance Matt Nichol (28:01) joins to chat about how athletes are dealing with injuries, how they are preparing their bodies differently with modern techniques, and if injuries can be prevented at a different rate moving forward.
