Default Elton Brand ruptures achilles

One of the nicest guys in the NBA ruptures his achilles tendon while working out today. I've heard many interviews from the guy and he is a total class act. Hopefully he can make a full recovery

Extremely painful and debilitating injury for a pro athlete.

Especially in a sport like Basketball, a comeback could be tough.

Found out yesterday that Elton Brand produced Rescue Dawn. Not that it has anything to do with his injury just found it interesting. He also has produced a Paris Hilton movie and another inide film that hasn't been released yet.
