Kentucky's Devin Booker Apologized to Tennessee Cheerleader After Running Into Her Knees
By Michael Shamburger
Kentucky basketball player Devin Booker ran into a Tennessee cheerleader’s knees on Tuesday night. Booker was running down the court on a fast break when he was fouled from behind by Armani Moore. The impact sent Booker flying into the back of Kristen Huskey’s knees and it looked nasty.
Booker felt so bad after the game that he decided to Tweet out an apology, even though he obviously did nothing wrong.
Is that Vol cheerleader alright? My bad.

It was a nice gesture to which Huskey responded that she is ok.
@DevinBook I'm like new ?

@kristenhuskey looked bad. Glad you're ok.

She also clarified that she did not tear her ACL.
Just to inform everyone, I didn't tear my ACL and I am okay! Appreciate the apology @DevinBook
