Buducnost pivot Alpha Kaba (2.06m, 26) passed out in a bank in Podgorica. He was rushed to a clinic in Montenegro. His medical situation is satisfactory.
“A member of our team, Alpha Kaba, felt weak and passed out today and first aid was given to him. Kaba feels good, and the first exam results are good. Our medical team will ensure that detailed medical tests are carried out as soon as possible,” the club wrote in a statement.
“He is currently in stable condition. His life is not in danger, but a complete diagnosis, neurological and cardiological, must be carried out in order to determine what happened to him. It will take time,” Dr Brnović said.
According to the Press portal, citing an eyewitness, Alpha Kaba suddenly slumped to the ground, falling on his back and banging his head against a door.
“We heard a thud and loud noise. Security ran towards the basketball player, who was lying on the ground. Everyone was in shock. They tried to revive him. One of the employees immediately brought a jug of water, with which they doused him, after which he regained consciousness after a few seconds. At that time, they also called the emergency services. During all this time, the man who came to help him with the papers at the bank was talking to the basketball player, who was sitting on the ground, ”says the witness.
Alfa Kaba played a good game against Prometheus on Tuesday, scoring 14 points and grabbing 13 rebounds. According to Montenegrin media, he recently had pneumonia and passed out during training in early October. Then he was not in the squad for the game against Red Star Belgrade in the ABA League.
After a season in Nanterre, the Franco-Guinean is making his second consecutive year abroad and he shot 12.3 points and 9.0 rebounds in 3 Eurocup matches with Buducnost.
