Kenny George, UNC Asheville's 7-foot-9, 375 pound center had part of his foot amputated, which will likely mean the end of his hoops career: “This just breaks our heart,” said coach Dave VanderMeulen of Chicago Latin, where George played in high school. “I've talked to Kenny, and he's dealing with what kind of mountain he's facing and reflecting on what could have been. … His parents are trying to keep his spirits up, but they are devastated, as any parents would whose child lost part of a limb.” [ Citizen-Times]
