Novocaine star Jack Quaid gets beat up throughout Clippers game
Yesterday at 10:02 AM
To promote their new action movie, Novocaine stars Jack Quaid and Amber Midthunder were at the Los Angeles Clippers’ recent game against the Sacramento Kings.
However, fans noticed that Quaid was getting progressively beat up throughout the game. The first time the stars were shown, Quaid was in a sling and arm cast.
Later on, he was being interviewed on the court, revealing that this was his first Clippers game. He was now wearing a neck brace. In the last clip, he had medical tape around his head and another cast on his right arm.
The appearance was to promote Quaid and Midthunder’s new movie, Novocaine. In the movie, he plays a man with congenital insensitivity to pain (CIP), meaning he cannot feel pain.
The Clippers’ latest game against the Kings was a great first game to attend for Quaid. The Clippers won in dramatic fashion as Kawhi Leonard scored a buzzer-beater in overtime. They won by a score of 111-110.
Leonard scored 17 points throughout the game, but his last were the most important. Ivica Zubac and James Harden both scored over 20 points, logging 22 and 29 points, respectively.
