The Heat-Knicks game was delayed when comedian Tracy Morgan wheeled off after throwing up on the Madison Square Garden court.
Tracy Morgan became ill and puked on the court during Monday night's 116-95 victory over the Miami Heat, which caused a ten-minute delay.
During the competition on Monday, the veteran comedian and actor was seated courtside at Madison Square Garden. He was observed throwing up a lot on the court in front of him, albeit it is unknown what caused the episode.
After a while, Morgan was wheeled out of the arena. His condition's other details are unknown at this time.
The roughly ten-minute delay is undoubtedly among the most peculiar in recent NBA history. After that, the game went on without any problems.
In addition to spending years on "Saturday Night Live," Morgan is most renowned for costarring with Alec Baldwin and Tina Fey as Tracy Jordan on the NBC series "30 Rock." Born in the Bronx, the 56-year-old has always been a Knicks supporter. Throughout his life, he has faced numerous serious health challenges, such as receiving a kidney transplant in 2010 and spending two weeks in a coma following a car accident in 2014. It is unknown whether Morgan just became sick or whether Monday's occurrence has anything to do with his previous health problems.
Despite the slight delay, the Knicks had no trouble defeating the Heat on Monday. Following a double-digit deficit in the first quarter, the Knicks easily defeated Miami by 21 points after outscoring them 41-15 in the third quarter. The Knicks finished the game with a 43-24 record, powered by Mikal Bridges' 28 points. Karl-Anthony Towns contributed seven rebounds and 23 points.
On Wednesday night in Texas, the Knicks will play the San Antonio Spurs.
