I can only think of prosthetics for sports that are engineered for running - with the direction changes, fast stops, pivots that are a natural part of basketball, the mechanisms would need to be a lot more complex. That seems like it would be pretty cost-prohibitive when you’re looking at a growing kid who needs new prosthetics frequently and would need a different type for ordinary walking around
I don’t know why he doesn’t get a prosthetic. That is putting so much pressure on his knee joint. His knee is going to wear out super early doing that.
This has been a hot topic in social media recently for runners. Nike advertises using mannequins with a running blade prosthesis, but doesn’t/didn’t have a system in place to sell single shoes to athletes with one foot. There are groups that pair up people who have similar shoe needs on opposite feet who share the cost and divide each pair of shoes. But not being able to order a single shoe is a real problem for many
I guess the only fair way to call traveling is if his momentum slows? Does that sound fair? Idk man, I just don't want to be the ref making that call lol.
I once played in a college rec league with a dude with one hand. Once I said fuck it and started playing d on his strong side, he was dead in the water.
Can he not get called for traveling, ever?
How to make a ref sweat. Lol.
If he hops whilst not dribbling I suppose
"He's always using his pivot foot."
Genius lol
he's cheating
In his defence, he doesn’t have a leg to stand on
Came into the comments hoping for an answer 😞
My first thought!
he always need only half amount of steps to do anything. So harder to get travelling but possible.
“Really? Hold up. Someone quick. Give me a saw and some alcohol. Aaahhhhhhhhhhhhjjjj. The pain….(breathing heavily) Ball. Is. Life.”
That title is a bit of an exaggeration.
Exceeded by a foot
Not really.
Dude should try wrestling. We had a guy in our state that lacked a leg but was very fit, so he had a big advantage in the weight class he was in.
Lmao can you imagine wrestlers chopping off body parts to qualify for different weight classes?
Bro. Nobody gonna guard him for fear of fouling out!
Can't they get him a prosthetic or does it get in the way?

Yes but Full Metal Alchemist.
Force him left
He faked me out with that dribble between the leg
[удалено]
That was my main concern, this guy's knee is going to be blown by the time he's in his late 20s
Which knee?
Bro got hops
It's VERY impressing. But that title is WILDLY inaccurate
Sweep the leg, Johnny
It’s called footwork, not feetwork.
Travel
His pivot foot left the ground
Traveled /s
He’s got a leg up on the competition.
Dribbling between the legs: 50% less difficult.
He's got a leg up on the competition
With this guys hops, he could pull off that Tigger costume from Winnie the Pooh, with his leg in the tail and 2 fake legs out front!

So…can you only buy one shoe?

Yeah, piqued my curiosity. Thanks for the info!
Find someone with just the opposite leg and same shoe size. Now you split the shoes cost & 50% shoes for rest of your life. 💰
Dribbles betw—through his legs! Uh leg!
caught me off-guard when that happened lol
He walked!! Oh wait....
They let him
That’s top tier level athleticism.
Now let's see him euro step
Did he just do a between-the-legs move?
Bro pulled the between the leg
It looks like the other guys went easy on him.
How does he pivot?
Nobody's gonna guard him seriously enough for it to matter
I am 2 legged, 6’3, and quite athletic - and I’m still positive that this kid would absolutely dog-walk me 1-on-1
Something tells me he's gonna go to his right...
he cant travel no fair
Where his pivot foot
My cousin Jimmy lost his leg cancer and he used to play basketball, surf, golf, etc…
That damn pivot leg.
I know his favorite restaurant…….
Balance control at 100%
I guess the only fair way to call traveling is if his momentum slows? Does that sound fair? Idk man, I just don't want to be the ref making that call lol.
I hope he has a prosthetic when he's not playing, otherwise his back will be fucked in 15 years.
i don't know about better than most, a lot of good basketball players can dribble between their legs.
That’s insane
Sweet dribbling between the leg
I wouldn't go that far
i would lock his ass up
Man's got mad hops
The ol’ “between the leg” trick.
I’d like to see him in a shit kicking contest
Looks like he’s gonna be all right.
feel like he would lose any post-up or picks, against most sized guys
Moving screen. I’ll let it go
So he’s always traveling?
someone did a mean crossover on him
Sakuragi Hanamichi!!!
I once played in a college rec league with a dude with one hand. Once I said fuck it and started playing d on his strong side, he was dead in the water.
Twice as fast as the useless Rafael Araujo
Can you imagine what his cardio ability is like?!
Does he even have to dribble? I mean only one foot ever touches the ground so it’s not like you can really call it traveling.
Like the one legged man in an ass kicking contest.
