Miami Heat guard Dion Waiters did not suit up for Friday’s game against the Lakers in Los Angeles after experiencing what ESPN reported as a “panic attack” on the team plane after taking a THC-infused edible.
According to the report, published Saturday night, Waiters received medical treatment upon the plane’s landing in Los Angeles and did not attend the game. He was listed as out due to illness.
UPDATE: Dion Waiters is the Heat player who had medical emergency on team plane, I’ve confirmed.
Waiters overdosed on “gummies,” sources say, and was passed out when plane landed.
He had a seizure when he was finally woken up, I’m told.
Waiters was listed out tonight (illness)
