NBA legend Paul Pierce needs all of the prayers right now as he revealed he is in hospital with a gruesome finger injury.

The Boston Celtics great startled followers when he posted a picture of himself in a hospital bed on Instagram. He also posted images of a horrific finger injury he had, with blood and deep cuts all over his hand.

Paul Pierce’s fingertip looks to be turned away from the remainder of his finger; what caused this is unknown.

NBA and Celtics supporters were concerned about Pierce’s injuries, but Pierce’s remark suggests that he will recover well from surgery.

After fifteen seasons as a Boston fan favorite, Paul Pierce is still revered as a Celtics great. Drafted in 1998, Pierce spent most of his playing career in Boston, winning a title in 2008 and being named Finals MVP. In 2010, he guided the Celtics to yet another Finals appearance, but they lost to the Los Angeles Lakers.

Following his tenure in Boston, Pierce played for the Brooklyn Nets, Washington Wizards, and Los Angeles Clippers before retiring from the NBA in 2017, per Wikipedia.

Former NBA player turned sports analyst Paul Pierce was discussing Sunday’s New York Knicks loss to the Indiana Pacers with co-hosts Skip Bayless and Keyshawn Johnson when he casually dropped the ‘N’ word effortlessly while on live television.

Co-host Skip Bayless clearly heard it as he looked on in shock, but he chose to let it go.

It’s likely that the FCC took offense to Pierce using the n-word on FS1. Undoubtedly, it garnered more attention for Undisputed than it had since Shannon Sharpe left Bayless’s program last summer.

Scott, who has known Fearne for 25 years, said he has never seen her ‘more positive or happier’, prompting Fearne to agree and reply: ‘Yeah I feel great!’
