ankle sprain is possible anywhere. but it hardly happens when you swim. i used to swim too but i never heard of ankle sprains in the water. but again you never know!.
it might happen when you kick!
but atleast i ve never heard of ankle sprains in the water

If you were to mis-time a turn, it would be no different than jumping and landing awkwardly. You have lateral force and meet a immovable object. If you hit your foot with it turned, it can roll causing a sprain. A break would be more difficult to do, but is still possible.

if ur foot twists it could dislocate i suppose or break but trust me dont try it
