"Born Ready" might have scored two of the most painful points in NBA history on Tuesday night.
Lance Stephenson has been on a mission to prove the NBA world wrong ever since he was taken in the second round of the 2010 NBA Draft. This season, he's continued to defy the odds, and was one of the more notable All-Star snubs when the Eastern Conference reserves were named last month.
He's filled the stat sheet all season long and frequented many a highlight reel for the Indiana Pacers. This finish against the Atlanta Hawks was just the latest in a long list of spectacular plays he's had, but easily the most wince-inducing.
Stephenson laid on the hardwood for a few moments after the crash, and was eventually helped back to the locker room. Lance had played in 46 of the team's 47 contests heading into the night.
At the time of the crash landing, he had 10 points on 4-of-5 shooting in 23 minutes.

Atlanta Hawks' 2014 Trade Deadline Shopping List
The 2014 NBA trade deadline, scheduled on February 20, is rapidly approaching. The Atlanta Hawks, like every team in the league, will be making phone calls these next couple of weeks in search of potential moves that will improve their squad.
The Hawks have played surprisingly well since the loss of Al Horford, thanks mainly to the strong play of first-time All-Star Paul Millsap.
Currently, the Hawks are 25-21, good enough for third in the Eastern Conference. They have made it clear that they still want to contend for a title even after the loss of Horford, given that most of the conference seems committed to tanking for the 2014 NBA draft.
There are a few possible trades that could benefit the team if they want to remain committed to this winning path.
