Pistons guard Rodney Stuckey collapsed on the Detroit bench during Friday night's game in Cleveland after an apparent seizure. But the third-year player is reportedly doing well in the Cleveland Clinic, with the cause of the scary episode still uncertain. (UPDATE, 2:55 PM: Stuckey was released from the hospital early Saturday, according to the Associated Press.)

A Pistons spokesman told reporters Stuckey should be able to return to Detroit this afternoon, pending further tests. It's unclear when he'll be able to play again. Stuckey had a similar episode last season, suffering from dizziness and missing two games as a result.

Stuckey collapsed during a time-out during Friday's game. He told Pistons trainer Arnie Kander he felt dizzy, took a drink of water, and then collapsed. The game was stopped for 12 minutes while medics attended to Stuckey, eventually transporting him to a local hospital for treatment and observation. The Pistons and Cavaliers joined together at midcourt after the game to collectively wish Stuckey well.
