What happened: The prospect remains hospitalized after collapsing during an outdoor Arizona State workout. The family’s attorney said the condition should not be described as a coma and characterized it as irreversible.

Why it matters: The collapse has intensified scrutiny of the workout and the university’s response. The family’s attorney has challenged the handling of the investigation and called for coaching staff to be placed on administrative leave.

By the numbers: He was selected 170th overall in the sixth round of the 2023 NHL Draft.

What to watch: Any independent review or personnel action involving the workout staff will be the next substantive development.
