Biyombo medically cleared after appearing to collapse on OKC sideline

Oklahoma City forward Bismack Biyombo appeared to collapse while standing in front of the Thunder bench during the second quarter of Wednesday night’s game at the Portland Trail Blazers.

He fell as the team went to the sideline in a timeout. During a lengthy delay, a wheelchair was brought on to the court but it was never used. Biyombo was helped off and headed for the locker room.

Biyombo was cleared of any serious medical issue by Trail Blazers physicians and will get further evaluation tomorrow, according to Bally Sports Oklahoma.

Biyombo, a 13-year NBA veteran, was playing just his fifth game with the Thunder after signing with the team on Feb. 10.

Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.
