Keyontae Johnson

Posted: 12/14/2020 11:59:59 PM

Like most of his teammates, Johnson tested positive for COVID-19 during the summer. Although the cause of Johnson's ailment was not immediately known, the coronavirus can lead to myocarditis, a viral infection of the heart muscle.

Before the incident, Johnson had just finished an alley-oop on a pass from Tyree Appleby. He celebrated with teammates and walked toward the sideline; as the team broke its huddle, he collapsed on the court and players screamed toward the sideline for help.

Did COVID cause his injury? Pray for his recovery.

Nobody despises to lose more than I do. That's got me into trouble over the years, but it also made a man of mediocre ability into a pretty good coach. Woody Hayes

I read he is conscious today. There is video of the collapse and it is really haunting. He's walking and all of a sudden his body stops everything.

Even without covid, a lot of athletes suffer from hidden issues, like enlarged hearts. I read this morning that he's out of the induced coma and responding to simple commands. That's good news.

We will get by.
We will get by.
We will get by.
We will survive.
