Former Kentucky Wildcats forward and NCAA National Champion Michael Kidd-Gilchrist has filed a lawsuit against a health insurance company due to them denying his claim after he was diagnosed with Myocarditis due to him getting COVID-19 twice, according to the lawsuit.

Kidd-Gilchrist last played in 2020 inside the NBA Bubble with the Dallas Mavericks, but during that year, while he was working out, he started to feel acute chest pain, and due to his condition, he has had to quit playing basketball, according to the lawsuit.

Since being diagnosed with Myocarditis and his insurance company denying his claim, Kidd-Gilchrist has filed a $40 million lawsuit against Lloyd’s of London, which is an insurance company.
