Top USC prospect Alijah Arenas, son of former NBA guard Gilbert Arenas, has been placed in a medically induced coma after a car accident.
Alijah Arenas, a standout USC commit, was seriously injured in a car accident and is now in a medically induced coma, according to an ESPN report.
A medically induced coma is a carefully managed procedure performed in hospitals to support more effective treatment. As explained on GNRC Hospitals’ official site, it helps achieve a deep, temporary state of brain inactivity and is considered a valuable medical intervention.
This state is brought on and maintained through medication and is entirely reversible. Once the medications wear off or specific medical procedures are completed, the patient typically regains consciousness.
