The Oklahoma City Thunder’s new signing Bismack Biyombo collapsed on the floor during the match against the Portland Trail Blazers.

As per the latest report, Biyombo, who was sitting on the bench during the contest, fell on the court. The teammates immediately paid attention to him and he became conscious after a while and left the court on his feet.

The player was later examined by the Trail Blazers’ medical staff and he was cleared of any serious medical problems.

The 31-year-old recently joined the Thunder after moving from the Memphis Grizzlies in the mid-season transfer window. This season, he has only played four matches where he is averaging 4.6 points, 5.7 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game.

The Thunder went on to win the match against the Blazers with a score of 128-120 at the Moda Center in Portland.

The victory was the Thunder’s eighth win in the last 10 matches which now put them on the second position in the Western Conference with 43 wins and 19 defeats this season.

The star of the show for the winning team on the night was point guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander who ended up contributing 37 points to go with three rebounds and five assists. He was well-supported by Jalen Williams who registered 31 points to go with four rebounds and three assists.
