Actor and comedian Tracy Morgan got sick in the second half of Monday night’s New York Knicks – Miami Heat game, interrupting the action at Madison Square Garden.
There was a pause in play with 6:09 left in the third quarter while workers cleaned up the area around Morgan’s seat. The delay lasted for more than 10 minutes.
A spokesperson for Madison Square Garden said they hope Morgan feels better soon, and they were looking forward to seeing him back in his courtside seat. Messages were left by the AP seeking comment from Morgan’s representatives.
The 56-year-old Morgan, a longtime Knicks fan, was featured prominently during the “Saturday Night Live” 50th anniversary weekend events, at both the “SNL50: The Homecoming Concert” and the live “SNL50: The Anniversary Celebration” special.

He also has a forthcoming, untitled comedy pilot on NBC, in which he plays a disgraced former football player looking to remake his image, opposite Daniel Radcliffe.
The Knicks went on to a 116-95 victory.
