Jamahal Hill unfortunately informs us about rapturing his Achilles and having to take time away to heal now. He will follow in Jiri’s footsteps in vacating the title until he can come back 100 percent.
I’m sad about this news but know that he’ll come back better than ever. Salute to Hill and congrats on the journey he has carved himself out so far!
LHW feels cursed. Since November 2022 they’ve had Jiri’s injury, the Ankalaev-Blachowicz draw, and now Hill’s injury too.
Don’t forget Rakic’s blown knee. Though that was at least partly due to Jan’s kicking work.
