Miami Heat forward Chris Bosh will miss at least the remainder of the season after developing blood clots on one of his lungs, the team announced Saturday.

The team said the All-Star is receiving care guided by Heat physicans at a South Florida hospital and resting comfortably. Coach Erik Spoelstra said Friday that he was confident that the condition is not life-threatening for the 30-year-old Bosh.

The medication required to treat such a condition typically requires at least six months of limited physical activity.

Blood clots are always a serious condition, but this is a particularly scary moment for Bosh and the NBA after former Portland Trail Blazers star Jerome Kersey died suddenly Wednesday of a blood clot in his lung. Kersey was 52.

Bosh was admitted to the hospital on Thursday after complaining about discomfort in his chest for several days. 

Bosh spent the early part of this week on vacation with family and friends, including teammate Dwyane Wade, in Haiti. Wade said Bosh wasn’t “feeling his best” on the vacation. When Bosh hadn’t improved by Wednesday, he was sent to a team doctor, and from there went to the hospital for tests.

“There just came a point in the vacation where he didn’t feel right,” Wade said. “He kind of relaxed and rested, and then when he got back, he did what he should have done … [he] got to the doctor and tried to see what’s up.”

Bosh is averaging 21.1 points and 7.0 rebounds this season.
