Former NBA player Shawn Bradley is learning to live with paraplegia after he was struck by a car while riding his bike last January, the Dallas Mavericks revealed this week.

The car came up behind Bradley and hit him “a mere block from his home in St. George, Utah,” the Mavericks said in a statement on Wednesday. The incident happened on Jan. 20 and Bradley has been in hospital ever since.

“The accident caused a traumatic spinal cord injury that left him paralyzed,” the team said.
