Cleveland Cavaliers majority owner Dan Gilbert suffered a stroke Sunday but is “awake, responsive and resting comfortably.”

“Dan was not feeling well Sunday morning so he was taken to the hospital by a family friend,” Farner said. “While under care at the hospital, he suffered a stroke and was immediately taken in for a catheter-based procedure, then moved in the Intensive Care Unit.”
