CLEVELAND (AP) - LeBron James had 40 points, 13 rebounds and six
assists as the Cleveland Cavaliers beat Detroit 99-92 on Friday
night in a game delayed when Pistons guard Rodney Stuckey collapsed
late in the third quarter.
Stuckey's vital signs were stable, and he was conscious and
breathing on his own at the Cleveland Clinic, according to the
Pistons. He was transported there for tests.
Stuckey was wheeled off the court on a stretcher after he
collapsed into a coach's arms on the bench. Play was halted for 12
minutes as the medical staff worked on him, placing an oxygen mask
on his face and wheeling him into an ambulance.
Tayshaun Prince had 23 points and Richard Hamilton added 20 for
Detroit, which lost its sixth straight.
