J.R. Smith Shattered Three Pairs Of Ankles (Including Stephon Marbury’s) In A Single CBA Game

Here is video evidence that J.R. Smith's extended stay in China has, statistically speaking, involved more broken ankles than brawls spearheaded by his sister. Heart of Beijing has dutifully compiled video of three incidents: The first you see here actually caused an injury, and the final step-back took out Stephon Marbury of the Beijing Ducks.

To Starbury's credit, though, the vet finished with 45 points, 12 boards, and 10 assists in the game, and the Ducks beat Smith's Zheijiang Cyclones, 102-93. Smith'sMarbury's coach's strategy—which was, literally, "to let Smith get his points and stop everyone else"—worked this time.
