I HATE this injury. Why has it been so prevelent in the last 25 years or so? Like when magic and bird played, you rarely heard about torn ACL' outside of Danny Manning and Ron Harper.
Muscles get stronger. Ligaments don’t.

Players also play more reckless (figuratively speaking). Those sudden cuts, combined with the sneakers now lead to more pops in knees

They don’t crossover like they do today. Maybe too much pressure in knees doing the eurostep. Maybe too much squats and leg press. Maybe it’s the new shoes. Maybe they play too much AAU ball
