Ex Canisius star Brian Dux, seriously hurt in car accident



From the Guildford Heat website.

Guildford Heat Basketball Club can confirm that Brian Dux, 26, star point guard for the Guildford Heat was injured in a serious road incident in the early hours of Saturday morning. The cause of the accident is not known and Brian remains in a local hospital intensive care unit. Initial tests have given reason for cautiously strong optimism. He has been visited by club officials and team-mates.

Monday 12 November 2007, 19.00 - Brian has had further tests which give reason for optimism. It has been suggested that he may regain consciousness within the next 24-48 hours.

I'm very familiar with Brian Dux since we both went to Canisius at the same time and he was the star athlete at the school. But being the star athlete at a small school he never was an asshole in the times I've encountered him in class or around campus and actually always seemed like a pretty cool guy. Plus he was a pretty good basketball player and gave Canisius fans some exciting moments. I wish him a full and speedy recovery.

Last year with the Heat he was averaging 18 points a game, shooting 50% from the floor and 40% from behind the arc and shooting an impressive 85% from the charity stripe.

Thanks for letting us know about Dux. Our thoughts are with him in NBA Europa, but what happened to his hair, hopefully they had to give him a haircut like Peter on Heroes got.
