Alijah Arenas Is 'Walking, Talking' After Cybertruck Accident and Expected to Leave the Hospital 'Very Soon'

Alijah Arenas is on the mend, less than a week after an early morning car accident.

Arenas, a five-star basketball recruit and the son of former NBA star Gilbert Arenas, was placed in a medically induced coma after the crash, in which his Tesla Cybertruck struck a tree and a fire hydrant shortly before 5 a.m. on Thursday, April 24 in Los Angeles.

On the retired basketball player’s podcast Gil’s Arena on Monday, April 28, cohost Josiah Johnson shared that the younger Arenas was scheduled to be discharged from the hospital soon.
