Comedian Tracy Morgan was wheeled away from his courtside seat at the New York Knicks-Miami Heat NBA matchup in New York City on Monday night, cellphone video taken at the game showed.
The comedian was seen wiping what appeared to be vomit from his face as several people huddled around him with looks of concern before he was put in a wheelchair and taken away, the video showed.
According to the video verified by NBC News, Morgan appeared to have a courtside seat at the game at New York City’s Madison Square Garden. An announcer said afterward during the live television broadcast of the matchup that the incident briefly delayed the game.
“We hope Tracy feels better soon and look forward to seeing him back courtside,” a Madison Square Garden spokesperson, who also speaks for the Knicks, said in response to an inquiry.
The nature of the issue for the 56-year-old comedian, who was a 1990s cast member of “Saturday Night Live” before reaching prime time on the NBC television series “30 Rock,” wasn't clear.
