Re: Prayers for Alijah Arenas
I'm praying for the young man
I honestly can't imagine what his family is going through.

Re: Prayers for Alijah Arenas
Damn, that's horrible news.
Whoever is running Gil's social media is clueless on what happened though because he's still posting Sports betting picks on his stories.
Edit: They deleted the posts and stories now, which is much better. The optics of it looked pretty terrible.

Re: Prayers for Alijah Arenas
Of course thoughts and prayers for this young man and his family but I'm going to be the mean person and ask - why is an 18 Y.O out at that time (around 4 am) in the morning and an 18 Y.O with a cybertruck is just not prudent.

Probably best not to speculate on this kind of stuff without any info out there yet

He was goin' to pray fajr salah with the akhs. Assume the best of this young man's rizz!
I hope he's okay soon. Say what you want about Bronny, him playing on an NBA court after having a health scare that'd turn most poeple away from the game is heroic. I hope Alijah can make a full recovery.
People get placed in induced coma after serious blood loss, right?

The guy is 18 years old man... it is not that crazy for an 18 year old to be out into the early morning. In fact, I would bet most 18 year olds do it.
Give your head a shake man.

Cybertruck wasnt on fire. Other car was.

Was there another vehicle involved? Don't really see confirmation of that anywhere.

Can be for any number of reasons. But usually due to pretty serious trauma where they need the body to maximize rest and healing.

Just re-read it. I read it wrong. Cybertruck on fire.

Hoping for full recovery. Never wanna see a young guy's dreams taken away before it even begins.
Some of these sons of former NBA players have had terrible luck with health. Shaq's son, LeBron's, and Arenas's son.

I don't understand how those cars are allowed on the road. They don't have crumple zones so the occupants take the full brunt of any impact.

Most 18 year olds aren't on the path to making it to the nba tho. Not to criticize alijah for doing typical teenager stuff or getting into a freak accident, but it makes you wonder how many athletes avoided serious incidents just by being home bodies. You hear a lot of athletes say that they never leave the house and maybe there's some benefit to that

Re: Prayers for Alijah Arenas
Praying for a speedy recovery for the young man, he has a bright future, hopefully he comes out of this with an interesting story to tell. I can only imagine how his family is doing right now, I pray that they have the strength to overcome this and come out stronger.
