After Adams went up for a rebound on Sunday, he came down and appeared to hurt his right arm in some fashion.
It appears that somewhere in the process of corralling the rebound, he was hit on the right arm or smacked it on one of the Los Angeles Clippers.
The initial video doesn’t appear too bad, but Adams is in noticeable pain based on his reaction.
If Adams wanted to return to the game however, he would have to shoot free throws before heading to the locker room, otherwise he would be disqualified from returning.
So what did Adams do?
He shot free throws using just his left hand and gave it his best shot.
Adams on the year is just shooting 53% from the charity stripe, so the fact he made one of two put him almost at his average.
He would head to the locker after giving everyone a show at the free throw line with his left-handed shooting.
