Troy just completed his 7th pro season overseas. He has provided an injury update, via his Instagram:

For those who have been asking. Here it is... Over a year now, I’ve been playing with an unstable knee and couldn’t find out what it was. After a year + of creams and drugs, it was time to get myself right. Finally got time to get MRIs/checkups and found I had a cartilage issue that was making my knee very weak. Stopping, going, and jumping was rough at times but I played through it. My knee was far from 100%. To better and extend my career, I pulled the plunge and got the surgery needed, a mosaicplasty to my left knee. Will be a long summer of rehabbing and strengthening but I’m looking forward to having my knee back to 100% going into my next season!
