In a shocking and devastating turn of events, Chicago Bulls’ star player Zach LaVine has suffered a near-fatal head injury during a critical game against their arch-rivals, the Milwaukee Bucks. The 29-year-old shooting guard was rushed to the hospital after collapsing on the court during a chaotic moment in the fourth quarter.
Eyewitnesses described the scene as “horrific” as LaVine fell awkwardly to the ground, striking his head on the hardwood floor. The crowd was left in stunned silence as medical personnel and team trainers desperately tried to revive the injured player.
“It was like time stood still,” said Bulls’ teammate and close friend, DeMar DeRozan. “We all thought we had lost him right there on the court. It’s been a dark day for the entire team and organization.”
LaVine, who has been a key player in the Bulls’ recent resurgence, was airlifted to a nearby hospital and is currently undergoing emergency surgery to repair the damage to his skull. Sources close to the player and his family indicate that his condition remains critical and his long-term prognosis is uncertain.
The NBA community has rallied around the injured star, with many of his peers expressing their support and well wishes on social media. “Our thoughts and prayers are with Zach and his family during this incredibly difficult time,” said NBA Commissioner Adam Silver.
The Chicago Bulls’ game against the Milwaukee Bucks was postponed indefinitely as the team and the league come to terms with the seriousness of LaVine’s injury.
