I was in a basketball game and jumped up, but as i landed my right knee went inward instead of bending now it hurts whenever i try to stretch it out.

?Strain: It certainly sounds as if you sprained your knee at the least. You may have suffered a mild tear as well in a ligament, etc. If this condition persists, you should get an evaluation from an Orthopedic specialist to best determine your definitive diagnosis and the best treatment for you. Best wishes.
