Sean Bradley, the former No. 2 overall draft best known for his 7-6 height, is paralyzed after a bike accident.
In January, Bradley was struck from behind while riding a bicycle near his Utah home. The accident left Bradley with a traumatic spinal cord injury that paralyzed him. He also underwent fusion surgery of the neck.
The Mavericks, with whom Bradley spent the majority of his NBA career, released an update on his health on Wednesday:

The statement said Bradley did not expect to make public comment while continuing his rehabilitation. It is unclear whether Bradley will be able to make a full recovery, given that the paralysis is localized.
Bradley, who was drafted No. 2 overall by the 76ers in 1993, spent time with the Nets between 1995 and 1997. He is one of the longest NBA players in the history of the association.
