Injuries in the NBA

I thought this would be thread worthy:

I know the Nurkic injury was a freak accident that could happen any time but it seems like a season doesn’t go by now where one of these doesn’t happen. I don’t remember injuries being this common, and severe in past decades of basketball. Is it the style of play? An argument could be made for cutting down the number of games, which I favor, but the number of games was the same back then.

Thoughts?

Maybe (I have no idea) there were just as many accidents back in the day but there wasn't as much media to report on them and we just didn't know about them as much.
I think players played through the minor injuries more often too.

In regards to these so-called "freak accidents" where players severely break their legs just by jumping and landing, I can tell you exactly why this happens now, and I expect to get flack for saying this, but I have heard it from a few very credible medical professionals (take it for whatever you think that is worth)

Taking roids makes your muscles stronger, and your bones weak.
If you really think the NBA is clean (or even college for that matter) then you are living in Egypt river.
Look at Zion. You think that is natural?
I happen to know the signs of use, and it's so obvious to me that it makes me laugh.

Lots of things can bleach calcium from your bones, various medications and recreational drugs for example.
