‘Prayers for Tim Hardaway’: Fans Worried, Father Rushes to Locker Room as Pistons Star Apparently Suffers Triple Head Injury

Is Tim Hardaway Jr okay? This question may now be on the minds of every attendee at the Little Caesars Arena, and those watching the NBA Cup Game from the comforts of their home. For a franchise that currently holds a 4-7 record, and which has ended at the bottom of the points chart for the last couple of years, the presence of the 58-year-old Amateur Scout is something that the Pistons need at all times. Unfortunately, not only have they lost the presence for the ongoing game, it looks as if this problem will persist for quite a few games.

During the course of the Pistons-Heat matchup, Tim Hardaway Jr had an unexpected fall after being accidentally hit by Tyler Herro. The player landed on his back, and hit his head hard against the floor. Not once, but twice! Not only had the game had to temporarily stop, but Hardaway Jr had to be taken away from the court in a wheelchair. Even his father escorted him to the locker room. Looking at this, it didn't take long for fans to become concerned.

How did fans react to Tim Hardaway Jr's injury? One social media user did not choose to play around with words, nor contemplate on the injury or what the player's absence could mean for the Pistons. Instead, he just put out a simple "Prayers for Tim Hardaway. Wishing him a speedy recovery" accompanied by a folded hands emoji.

This is a developing story.
