The Miami Heat said in a statement Wednesday that shooting guard Gerald Green had been admitted to hospital.

The team didn't release any specifics on the 29-year-old's condition, though he missed Tuesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks due to an undisclosed illness.

Heat teammate Mario Chalmers was with Green when EMTs arrived, according to South Florida Sun Sentinel's Ira Winderman.

Miami Fire and Rescue reportedly requested assistance due to a "combative patient" at the Marquis Residences condominium.

Green was not arrested, the city of Miami police department told the Miami Herald.

In three games, Green has averaged 10.3 points on 32.3 percent shooting in 21.7 minutes.
