NBA: Bad News For OKC! Serge Ibaka To Miss Rest Of Playoffs With Injury
This is seriously a big blow to the Thunder’s chance of winning an NBA title this season, even with Durant & Westbrook. The team announced via their twitter account today that Serge Ibaka will miss the rest of the playoffs with an injured calf. He hurt it last night in the series clinching win over the Clippers. Most hoped it would just be something that would be fine in a few days, but after an MRI today the team confirmed they will have to do without their third star. Ibaka is a tough guy though so it won’t surprise me at all if he tries to play anyway, but there is a very high chance of more damage being done if he doesn’t rest. Other players like Reggie Jackson, Nick Collison and others will have to step up big time to help the team in his absence.

Earlier this month, Machine Gun Kelly had a bit of a mishap while playing basketball, and ended up breaking his foot and fracturing his ankle!

Of course, they appreciate it, and have been showing their support for their favorite artist in the cutest ways! Check out what they’ve been doing at the shows in the gallery!
(Photos) Shows, Video Shoots, Recording: Check Out How MGK Is Making It Through Despite His Broken Foot
On April Fool’s Day, the joke was on Machine Gun Kelly – and the Cleveland rapper found himself in the hospital with a broken foot and a fractured ankle. Ouch! Not that it’s ever really a “good time” to be totally inconvenienced with a major injury, but during a month where he has multiple tour dates (check them out and buy tix here!), studio sessions for his sophomore album, video shoots and his BIRTHDAY, it makes it that much more of a nuisance. Kels isn’t letting his crutches or his wheelchair stop him, though, and has made sure to handle every priority…except getting surgery yet. “Broke the 5th metatarsal in my foot as well as fractured another bone in my ankle a couple days ago,” Kels told his EST fans. “Doc said no shows for a month but I know a lot of my shows are THIS month. I haven’t gotten surgery yet and I avoided getting the plaster cast so I could fly with it when it swells up from the altitude pressure, but long story short, I’m here and ready to perform. I just ask that you as fans be patient with me this next month or two while I wobble around with this bullsh*t on stage! Lace up.” Now THAT’S dedication. As the saying goes, “One monkey don’t stop no show!” Check out pics in the gallery to see how MGK is handling everything with his injury. Get well soon!
(Photos) Oh No! Guess Which Rapper Broke Their Foot & Fractured Their Ankle!
Machine Gun Kelly was a wild boy for real yesterday, and ended up in the hospital with a broken foot and a fractured ankle. No details on what it is that he was doing just yet, but whatever it was – it clearly didn’t go well! Heading back home after his visit to the ER (alongside his manager, Ashleigh), Kels didn’t let the injury stop him as he got right back to the music and shared a photo with fans as he appeared to be writing a new song in his dining room. I’m sure the emotions from this will create some interesting tunes – as something like a broken foot is really going to get in the way of the insane performances he’s known to put on. Hopefully this doesn’t keep him off his feet for too long! Get well soon, Kels! More pics in the gallery.

We’re coming down to the last stretch of the season as teams are either fighting for a playoff spot or tanking for a lottery pick. As the playoff teams prepare for the postseason they’re also very cautious of their star players particularly surrounding injuries.
