Alijah Arenas is finally out of major danger.

The son of former NBA point guard Gilbert Arenas and USC’s top recruit, Alijah, has made an incredible step towards recovery after waking up from a coma.

While he has not fully recovered from the trauma of the incident, he communicated via writing on a piece of paper.

He recalled being surrounded by smoke as the last few visuals from inside the car.

“Did anyone get hurt?” Arenas asked after recovering from medically induced coma, as per Shams Charania.

Alijah recently met with an unfortunate car accident with his Tesla Cybertruck. The crash happened early Thursday morning when Alijah lost control of his vehicle.

The EV struck a fire hydrant and a tree, causing it to catch fire while he was still inside. Thankfully, he was the only one hurt in this scary incident.

Brave bystanders rushed to help rescue him from the burning car, and his family has expressed heartfelt gratitude for their courageous actions. They described this life-saving effort as nothing short of miraculous.

Even though Alijah Arenas was intubated and placed in a medically induced coma to help treat severe smoke inhalation, he recently started to communicate by writing down messages.

Authorities have confirmed that drugs and alcohol weren’t factors in the crash, which is a relief for everyone concerned. Alijah is now stable and is receiving wonderful support from his family.

However, his parents, Gilbert Arenas and Laura Govan, have issued a statement after Alijah’s positive recovery.

“The family continues to ask for the public’s prayers and support as their miracle baby fights his way back to full recovery,” the statement read.

Additionally, throughout his high school career, Arenas was recognized as a McDonald’s All-American. He also led his team to a California state championship, making him the top recruit for USC’s 2025 class.
