I would consider it even before the falling back down. If I had a clear look at the elbow to the chin and the way Hibbert dropped to the floor, that would be enough for me. Of course in my state, the NFHS rules apply so the player could be cleared by a trainer and return. No downside to being extra cautious. Inform the coach and if the player returns, assume that they have been evaluated and cleared.
