What's Wrong with Andrew Bynum?

Although knee injuries that had plagued Andrew Bynum since he was 12 years old continued to surface, the youngster was getting better each and every year. In his third season, he averaged 13.1 points and 10.2 rebounds.

Why did Bynum retire early?

Bynum didn't get big minutes but was still productive. He averaged 8.4 points and 5.3 rebounds with Cleveland in 2013-14. The injuries caused him to retire from the league at the age of 26.

What was bynums injury?

Bynum suffered a hyperextension to his right knee in Game 6 of the Lakers first round series against the Oklahoma City Thunder, the same knee he tore his MCL on. Unlike the previous injuries Bynum had sustained to his knees, the hyperextension did not cause him to miss any games.
