Leo Goes Down in Pickup Game And Needs Crutches

 

Put Leonardo DiCaprio on the injured list.

The "Gangs of New York" star went down in a heap playing basketball in Los Angeles on Sunday and is walking around on crutches.

Leonardo DiCaprio DiCaprio plays in a regular weekend pickup game with other celebs, including his best buddy, Tobey Maguire, when he's on the West Coast. DiCaprio's rep, Ken Sunshine, characterized the injury as a "bad sprain."

Sunshine refrained from using any medical terminology. "All I know is that it happened, and we don't know yet how long he'll be on crutches. I'm not even sure if it's any worse than a sprain. I'll probably know more in a few days."

Thanks to Peanut and Pax !
