NBL star Harry Froling has been discharged from hospital and is recovering at home following an alleged one-punch attack.

The Brisbane Bullets centre had been the alleged victim of a shocking cowardly attack on the NSW South Coast last month.

The 24-year-old’s father, former player Shane Froling, had confirmed the basketballer had undergone surgery as a result of the incident.

He tweeted on January 29: “Harrison Froling has had major surgery & remains in hospital after a strike to the head. We are unable to comment regarding the incident.

“We will give our side once police gather the evidence & facts and it has been dealt with.

“Thank you for the care and support, it's appreciated.”

Whilst the young player had sent out a message on January 26 thanking his timeline for the support.

He wrote, at the time: “I appreciate all the messages in regards to my circumstances. It’s a scary thing, and I appreciate the love and support. Especially from my teammates, former coaches and family.”

Now, in a post that was retweeted by the former Rookie of the Year, his father revealed the extent of the injuries.

Sharing an image of Froling post-surgery, a massive scar could be seen on the right side of his head starting at his ear and curving around to his forehead.

Shane Froling wrote: “Harrison Froling is out of hospital and recovering.

“As much as we would love to address media and questions we will leave it until police evidence is presented.

“He is on the mend, thankyou for the care and love sent.”

Fox Sports reports that the player was knocked unconscious on January 22 in the early hours of the morning following his side’s game against Illawarra Hawks.

He suffered a fractured skull and bleeding on the brain.

Brisbane Bullets coach Greg Vanderjagt confirmed last week that the club would be conducting an inquiry into the incident after police investigation.

He said, via Fox Sports: “The club will conduct their own investigation when the time is right and put everything together and take the appropriate course of action in terms of how we manage the group and how we manage those situations on the road moving forward.

“It’s something that is real and we certainly don’t sweep it under the table and just ignore it.

“But at this point in time, there’s not too much else to say on that because it is a police matter.”
