Another huge milestone in Keyontae Johnson's recovery -- the Univ. of Florida basketball star just did the Gator Chomp from his hospital bed!!
It's been almost a week since Johnson collapsed on the court in a game against Florida State. He was hospitalized in Tallahassee and was eventually transported back to the UF hospital in Gainesville.
Johnson was placed in a medically induced coma after the incident -- but has since woken up and has made tremendous progress in his recovery.
You can see in the new video ... Johnson is talking, smiling and moving his arms (hence the "Chomp"). It's all great to see.
"First and foremost, I would like to thank God," Johnson says.
"I know you all have been sending your prayers out the last few weeks and me and my parents are very grateful for all the prayers that have been going out."
"To all the doctors and medical staff at Tallahassee Memorial and UF Shands, I just want to say thank you for all the support you gave me."
"To my Gator Nation and UF athletic family, I just want to thank you for all the prayers you gave out to me."
Great to see -- and hopefully he'll continue to get better ... and maybe even get back on the court sometime soon.
Johnson is one of the top college basketball players in the country and a legitimate NBA prospect.
