Heel pain

My son broke his heel in basketball a little less than a year ago.
He is in junior high and plays basketball this year. However, with continued playing, his heel is painful.
He did have it xrayed and all is OK, it is just the daily battering that makes it painful.
What would you recommend for a heel pad or whatever to help with the pain while playing ball?

    Over the past 20 years I have used a hard plastic heel cup (the kind you can buy at a podiatrist for $5 a piece). These cup the natural fat pad closer together making for less pain upon impact. They work!
