In basketball, this is known as "setting a hard screen".
In Bakırköy, Istanbul, yesterday at about 12:30 in the afternoon, the
trailer of a TIR (tractor trailer) driven by Sina Özer, hit an overpass
and fell off its bed and onto a car driven by Anadolu Efes basketball
player Bryant Dunston (36). (!)
Dunston (who is from Queens in New York City) was stuck in his car
and injured. Firefighters and medics arrived to free the "pivot" (he
plays the center position on the team). TIR driver Özer explained
that "the height was written as 4 meters but the trailer hit the top of
it and fell on the car behind. Thank God, the fellow in the car wasn't
badly hurt. We got him out through the back door. He sat down and
spoke with someone who took a cellphone video of the accident. His
condition is not serious, just a bit of blood on his face."
Anadolu Efes issued a statement about the accident, noting that
Dunston was under observation in the hospital, along with a
"Geçmiş olsun Kaptan!" (get well soon Captain!).
Driver Özen explaining what happened to his boss:
