The cause of Dion Waiters' illness that led to the Miami Heat listing him as out for the team's game Friday night against the Los Angeles Lakers has reportedly surfaced.
ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski and Brian Windhorst reported Saturday night that Waiters "experienced a panic attack on the team's chartered flight Thursday night after consuming a THC-infused edible," a substance that is banned by the NBA.
The Heat did not provide a comment.
Wojnarowski and Windhorst's joint report came after Fox Sports 640 South Florida's Andy Slater first reported that Waiters passed out on the team plane from Phoenix to L.
