On Monday night, Tracy Morgan seemed to get physically ill while watching the New York Knicks play the Miami Heat at Madison Square Garden.
People in the basketball game’s audience shared videos and pictures online, claiming that Morgan fell ill while seated in his courtside seat and puked on the ground. Then he was wheeled out of the arena, clutching what looked like a white towel up to his face that was stained red. His nose seemed to be bleeding, according to one commenter.
People claims that Morgan fell ill during the game’s third quarter, which caused a ten-minute delay while the actor was attended to.
“We hope Tracy feels better soon and look forward to seeing him back courtside,” a Madison Square Garden representative told People.
A request for comment from Morgan’s Knicks supporters has not received a response.
Morgan has previously experienced public health emergencies. He passed out in front of a building in Park City in 2012 while he was at the Sundance Film Festival. A small kryptonite was encountered by Superman. This Brooklyn kid was shaken up by the high altitude in Utah,” Morgan later wrote on Twitter. At the time, Lewis Kay, his publicist, claimed that altitude and exhaustion combined to cause the incident. Within a few days, Morgan was back at work on 30 Rock.
Two years before he fell at Sundance, Morgan, who has diabetes, had a kidney transplant.
And in 2014, as he was speeding on the New Jersey Turnpike, a Walmart truck struck the limousine he was in from behind. The actor had to relearn how to walk and talk after breaking his leg and spending two weeks in a coma. James McNair, a fellow traveler, perished in the collision.
Morgan made a comeback to the Saturday Night Live studio last month to participate in the celebration of the show’s 50th anniversary.
