Maybe Kevin Ware has a career as a late night talk show host.
The Louisville guard, who accompanied his teammates to the Final Four in Atlanta just three days after breaking his leg in gruesome fashion, presented the Top 10 List on the “Late Show with David Letterman” on Thursday night.
And Ware, in his typical laid-back fashion, had no problem poking fun at his horrific injury, delivering the category “Top Ten Things Going Through Kevin Ware’s Mind at this Moment,” after Letterman showed a picture of him on the court in agony.
Ware has become a celebrity since his lower right leg snapped during Sunday’s Midwest Region final against Duke. NBA stars Kobe Bryant and Dwyane Wade sent well-wishes via Twitter, and Ware also heard from Kevin Durant and Charles Barkley.
Here was the full Top 10:
10. “What was that loud cracking sound?”
9. “I hope this doesn’t leave a bruise”
8. “Hey look — my tibia!”
7. “OUCH”
6. “Did it go in?”
5. “Oh, boy . . . hospital food!”
4. “Tape it up, coach, I’m staying in”
3. “They fired Leno?”
2. “Heat, then ice or ice, then heat?”
1. “At least my bracket’s not busted.”
