VIDEO: Concussed American basketball player stumbles around before nailing long shot

'Tis but a scratch

We’re not saying that anyone should play on in any sport through a concussion, but you can’t help but admire this guy’s determination.

Trace Dimeff of Central Arizona suffered what he described as a ‘mild concussion’ during a recent game after a tussle for the ball.

As he stumbled around the court, it’s pretty clear that Dimeff was in a bad state. Well, clear to everyone but his team-mate apparently, who passed Dimeff the ball and watched him calmly slot away a three-pointer from the corner before falling over again.

After his video started to gain more attention, Dimeff made sure to let everyone know that he was okay.
