SHOCK: Tracy Morgan had to leave the Knicks game in a wheelchair after suddenly vomiting and falling to the floor. He was rushed to the hospital, but unfortunately, he was…

Tracy Morgan had a medical incident during the New York Knicks’ game against the Miami Heat at Madison Square Garden on Monday, March 17.

Morgan, 56, became ill during the game, and fans shared photos and videos of Morgan vomiting on the court floor.

 Another video on social media showed the  30 Rock star being wheeled away while holding a towel over his face.

The Knicks-Heat game, which ended with a 116-95 Knicks victory, was delayed in the third quarter for approximately 10 minutes due to Morgan’s medical incident.

“We hope Tracy feels better soon and we can’t wait to see him back on the court,” a Madison Square Garden representative told PEOPLE.

Morgan has diabetes and underwent a kidney transplant in 2010. Four years later, he survived a fatal car accident. In June 2014, a Walmart truck rear-ended Morgan’s limousine while speeding on the New Jersey Turnpike.

Morgan broke his leg and was in a coma for two weeks after the accident, which killed his collaborator and mentor, James McNair, and injured others. The comedian was wheelchair-bound for five months and subsequently had to relearn how to speak and walk.

“I want to tell everyone who was in the truck with me that night that I love you and we miss you, Uncle Jimmy Mac, and may God bless your family,” Morgan told PEOPLE on the 10th anniversary of his accident. “And to the driver that night and his family, my colleagues and I forgive you.”

After his time in rehab, he shared his journey over the years, telling PEOPLE in 2017 that the accident finally left him motivated and with a “story to tell.”

“When something bad happened to me, I made it funny and made it good,” he said at the time, promoting the Netflix special   Staying Alive  . 

Last month, Morgan attended  SNL50  , a celebration of  Saturday Night Live ‘s 50th anniversary , and even appeared in skits during the show.

“This is incredible,” Morgan, 56, told actor and comedian Matt Rogers during the  SNL50: The Red Carpet special   on Sunday, February 16. “I just thank God that I was a part of this, that I survived the accident, and that I’m alive to be here.”
