While most of the basketball world has its eyes firmly fixed on The Staples Center for the Celtics-Lakers match-up in the NBA Finals, the college basketball world will be keeping an eye on UCLA Medical Center where LA news stations are reporting that UCLA‘s legendary coach John Wooden is hospitalized and listed in critical condition. This is by no means the first time that Wooden has been hospitalized in recent years as news sources have listed previous hospital admissions for diverticulitis, a fall, and pneumonia. However, media sources are reporting that the greatest college basketball coach of all-time will most likely not survive this hospital stay. While we won’t speculate too much on Wooden’s condition as a lot of it is up to the choices of Wooden and his family we want to send them our best wishes. We will provide more updates throughout the weekend (or however long Wooden is in the hospital) as we get them.
