Is there a history of seizures for Stuckey? I know with this being the 20th anniversary of Gather's death, they take anything like this very serious. Hoping he's fine...Screamin_Eagle174 wrote:Stuckey is being attended to by paramedics right now during the Pistons/Cavs game. Looks like he had a seizure.

Stuckey was wheeled off the court on a stretcher after he collapsed into a coach's arms on the bench. Play was halted for 12 minutes as the medical staff worked on him, placing an oxygen mask on his face and wheeling him into an ambulance.
In other words, he's Stuckey in Cleveland.JALMOND wrote:ESPN reported at the half of the Spurs/Hornets that Stuckey will not fly back with the Pistons to Detroit, but will be kept overnight as a precaution in Cleveland. Vital signs are still stable.

Detroit Pistons guard Rodney Stuckey is expected to play Friday night, two weeks after collapsing on the bench during a game.
Pistons president of basketball operations Joe Dumars says Stuckey practiced well on Thursday and expects him to play at Indiana.
Stuckey was out of the lineup Tuesday night against the Cavaliers, missing his sixth straight game since he went off the court on a stretcher and was taken to a hospital during a March 5 game at Cleveland.
Doctors cleared Stuckey for exercise last week after extensive cardiac tests.
Stuckey missed two games last season after experiencing dizziness. The guard has insisted he's not worried about the same problems happening again.
While see your point, I think that there are quite a few reports of football players having health problems. Usually in August.JayJ79 wrote:Is it just me, or are such seizures and similar health issues much more prevalent in basketball players?
Or at least, it seems like the only instances I hear of athletes suffering those problems are with basketball players.
