A serious moment happened in the game vs the Thunder & Minnesota Timberwolves.
He went up to block a dunk by Andrew Wiggins next thing he’s catching a elbow to the face and laying out flat on the ground.
The center was unconscious and head bounced off the floor, Thunder medical team rushed to him with concern.
Noel was rendered immobile on the court, he needed to be taken off the floor on a stretcher a few minutes later.
Prayers up for Nerlens Noel. The Thunder big man caught an elbow, hit his head and had to be stretchered off 🙏 pic.twitter.com/22qPKtz1l6
