I guess in all of the excitement from last night I've forgotten about Luke's shoulder brace. Anyone know the background or story?
He injured his shoulder while at Indiana, and had a setback this past summer.
Shoulder brace is the new walking boot.
My sources say he first injured it trying to lift Crean's ego. The situation was exacerbated when he tried to use his arm to shield him from Crean's bile after the decision to transfer.
He probably should have had surgery when he left Indiana, but he wanted to try the conservative way first.
Sure as crap didn't slow him down.

That's neither funny nor true.
His injury, from my understanding, was caused by having to lift a box of numerous trophies that Crean was going to hand out to camp participants at a Indiana basketball camp for children. He actually injured the shoulder not delivering the trophies, but helping Riley, who won every trophy at the camp, to take the trophies back to the Crean house.

So this would be the correct fix?

I first heard that it happened when Crean took him for a ride on his ATV after Karate practice, but later found out that it was tackling dummy related.
I thought it was injured while diving for loose balls in practice while at I4
It's for preventing him to hurt his shoulder again.
It's from practicing all those damn free throws! Buzz would have this kid at 100%.
just saw travis diener in shoulder brace walking out of Jimmy Johns.
Injured it hoisting one of TC's banners at IU
I predict that this topic soon will be someone's username
Still needs the brace because of Tom Crean holding him back. Fischer feels much better now that Wojo has "taken the handcuffs of him"
This thread has potential...
Air balled a slap of five and it popped out of the socket.
Heard the doctor said he can now take the brace off since he has healed.
However, Luke thought he should keep it on since he can feel the weight on his shoulders of the expectations of all Scoopers hoping he can save the season all by himself.
I see an early favorite in this years meme contest
Wait.
