Louisville guard Kevin Ware suffered a gruesome leg injury in the first half of Sunday afternoon's game against Duke.

Ware broke a bone in his lower right leg when he landed awkwardly, leaving many on the court visibly shaken.

Louisville players huddled around Ware as he left the court. Several of his teammates embraced each other as they cried. Rick Pitino wiped tears from his eyes during the nine-minute delay.

The injury occurred as Duke's Tyler Thornton made a three-pointer. Ware tried to contest the shot and his leg buckled when he landed.
