The 13-year NBA veteran fell backward as the team went to the sideline in a timeout and stayed down for a few minutes, according to The Associated Press.

A wheelchair was brought onto the court but was never used. Biyombo was helped up and off to the locker room, according to ESPN.

“He’s fine. He just fainted, basically,” coach Mark Daigneault said. “He was in the locker room at halftime laughing and joking.”

After the game, the Thunder said Biyombo did not have a serious medical condition.

Biyombo was playing in his fifth game with the Thunder after signing with the team on Feb. 10, AP reported.

Biyombow did not return to the game.
