The New York Knicks secured a 116-95 win over the Miami Heat on Monday night, but the game was unexpectedly delayed for about 10 minutes after comedian and actor Tracy Morgan became ill courtside and vomited onto the court.
Unusual Delay at Madison Square Garden
Morgan, a well-known comedian and actor, was sitting courtside at Madison Square Garden when the incident occurred. It remains unclear what caused him to become sick, but he was seen suddenly vomiting heavily in front of him, leading to an unusual pause in the game.
Officials promptly intervened to clean the area, and Morgan was escorted out of the arena in a wheelchair. At this time, there are no further details regarding his condition. The delay, which lasted approximately 10 minutes, was one of the most unusual interruptions in recent NBA history. After cleanup efforts were completed, the game resumed without any further issues.
