Lindsey Vonn Lost control at a crucial moment.

Lindsey Vonn took to the slope with a ruptured ACL and a surgically repaired knee on Sunday. But that was not the reason for her crash, by the looks of things.

The 41-year-old skier was airlifted to hospital for the second time in just nine days after yet another downhill accident.

Vonn tore her ACL and suffered meniscus damage on the final World Cup downhill before the Winter Olympics. She fought through the injuries to make an attempt at gold on Sunday, but crashed just seconds after leaving the starting gate.

While it was easy to assume that previous injuries caused the crash, it doesn’t appear they played any role.

While the extent of her injuries, if any, is unknown, it’s likely that she is dealing with something new. At the very least, she’s probably aggravated her World Cup injuries.

She was heard screaming in agony while personnel attended to her. They later strapped her to a gurney and had her flown out for treatment.

“She’ll be OK, but it’s going to be a bit of a process,” chief of sport for U.S. Ski and Snowboard, Anouk Patty, said, per the Associated Press. “This sport’s brutal and people need to remember when they’re watching (that) these athletes are throwing themselves down a mountain and going really, really fast.”

Vonn came into the Games as the World Cup’s downhill leader. There are fears that her career could be over for good this time around.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.

From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
