Basketball Hall of Famer Bill Russell was released from a Seattle hospital Saturday after an overnight stay for an unknown condition.
Russell confirmed on Twitter that he went to the hospital late Friday. He didn't say why.
Russell said in the light-hearted message, "As my wife likes to remind me, I don't drink enough."
He thanked fans for their concern and appeared to dismiss reports that the hospital visit was due to heart troubles.
Russell said in the message that his friends "know I don't have a heart to give me trouble."
The hospitalization was initially reported by TMZ, which said it was for dehydration.
