Well, that's gotta hurt.
Raptors guard Fred VanVleet suffered an apparent facial injury in the fourth quarter of Game 4 of the NBA Finals on Friday night when he was on the receiving end of an inadvertent elbow from Warriors guard Shaun Livingston.
Oh man. Livingston accidentally CRUSHED VanVleet in the face with his left elbow. Good amount of blood pic.twitter.com/R1vLB5BQk2— Drew Shiller (@DrewShiller) June 8, 2019
VanVleet immediately went to the floor after the contact, and remained there lying still while the Raptors trainers tended to him. Blood was seen streaming down VanVleet's face.
