Shaun Livingston – Los Angeles Clippers
Back when Livingston played for the Clippers, he suffered a horrendous knee injury. Livingston went up for a dunk but came down in a split causing his left knee to buckle and snap in the wrong direction. That night, he tore his anterior cruciate, posterior cruciate, suffered collateral ligaments, and dislocated his kneecap. If you listen to the replay, you can hear his agonizing screams. This injury ~should~ have ended his career and it was pretty darn close. The next few years, he bounced around teams with little success. However since 2014, he’s been with the Golden State Warriors and has found success yet again. Hard work and determination pays off.

LeCharles Bentley – Cleveland Browns
When Bentley began the 2006 campaign, he was already a two-time Pro Bowler and had the fortune to sign with his dream team, the Browns. However, his career would forever be damaged after he injured his knee in the first 11-on-11 drills in camp that year for Cleveland. Later it was revealed that Bentley suffered from a staph infection and required four additional surgeries following the knee injury. Bentley claims that the infection was so bad that he almost had to have his leg amputated. He sued the Browns over the infection but later settled the matter out of court back in 2012.
