UPDATE: Florida Gators’ Keyontae Johnson delivers Video Message After Terrifying Court Collapse
Just nearly a week after Keyontae Johnson collapsed on the court during a basketball, the University of Florida basketball star is now speaking out to give an update on his road to recovery!
In a video taken from the hospital bed, Johnson says: “First and foremost, I would like to thank God. I know you all have been sending your prayers out the last few weeks and me and my parents are very grateful for all the prayers that have been going out. To all the doctors and medical staff at Tallahassee Memorial and UF Shands, I just want to say thank you for all the support you gave me. To my Gator Nation and UF athletic family, I just want to thank you for all the prayers you gave out to me.”
Sports fans were happy to hear from the athlete and see him smiling and moving around again following the scary incident that left many of them concerned. As we previously reported, Johnson was placed in a medically induced coma after the big incident. Thankfully he made it through and has already made tremendous progress in his recovery.
The cause of the 21-year-old’s collapse is still not clear, and it’s unknown if it was due to COVID-19.
