Lance, who joined Pinoy Big Brother in 2018 and 2019 and was dubbed the “Capteen-Ball Cutie ng Davao,” shared on Instagram that he sustained an ACL injury.

According to MayoClinic.org, an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is a tear or sprain of one of the main ligaments in the knee. Ligaments are strong bands of tissue that connect one bone to another. The ACL is one of two ligaments that cross in the middle of the knee.

ACL injuries often happen during sports or activities that involve sudden stops, jumps, pivots, or changes in direction.

Lance began his post by saying, “My greatest fear.”

“Every basketball player's worst nightmare would probably be a torn ACL. But with that, there's a lot of thoughts that come into mind,” Lance wrote as he reflected on his physical setback.

He continued: “Will I ever play the same again? Will my passion for the sport that I loved since I was 4 years old change? Will I ever play again?

“I know that this is gonna be a tough journey but I will do everything to get back on track and be better than I once was.”

The former PBB housemate then expressed his appreciation to everyone who checked up on him and wished him a speedy recovery.

“To all the fandoms, friends and family, I'm sorry for letting you guys down as well. I know yung iba bumyahe pa ng malayo para lang mapanood ako and yung teammates ko. Pasensya po talaga and I promise you guys babawi ako once I'm clear to play again.

“I just want to thank everyone for the messages and the concern. Rest assured I'm on the positive side and just looking forward to recovering :) I love this sport more than anything in the world. I'll come back stronger.

“This has been your Capteen-Ball Cutie ng Davao, signing off for now.”
