Former NBA All-Star Gilbert Arenas provided some key details from the car crash that landed his son, 5-star basketball recruit Alijah Arenas, in a medically induced coma last week.
Appearing on "The Dan Patrick Show," Gilbert confirmed Alijah is "doing very well" with no major injuries, nearly two weeks after he lost control of his Tesla Cybertruck, hit a fire hydrant and slammed into a tree. Alijah is ranked by Rivals as the No. 4 overall recruit in the Class of 2026 and is currently committed to USC.
When asked to describe his immediate reaction to learning of the crash early in the morning, Gilbert said he was initially confused due to a malfunction in the Tesla app:
"Usually I wake up at 4:30 and I go through the Tesla app to see if he's heading home or at the gym.
