What happened: Responding to Shams Charania's report that New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby has been diagnosed with a right hamstring strain and is considered day to day, MMA broadcaster Ariel Helwani offered a wary public reaction. Helwani said he wants to remain positive but worried that initial day-to-day labels often get extended, and joked he would offer up his own leg in exchange. The post is a fan reaction to ESPN's injury report, not new medical information.
