Florida Gators basketball star Keyontae Johnson was part of a scary scene in the team's game against Florida State on Saturday as he collapsed on the court while coming out of a timeout. According to CBS Sports' Jon Rothstein, Johnson had just completed an alley-oop four minutes into the game. A timeout was called following the play and as Johnson walked back onto the court, he collapsed. This all took place during a commercial break and when the ESPN broadcast returned, Johnson was being attended to.
Following the incident, the Gators Twitter account offered their prayers for the player, noting that they love him. For many, the scene was quite scary although the game is still currently being played.
