A Toledo basketball player turned into a hero during a game last weekend – performing successful CPR on a referee who had collapsed in the middle of the contest.

The scary incident was caught on video … when during the Toledo Glass City’s game against the Jamestown Jackals on June 11 – a ref wobbled, and then crumpled to the floor.

TMZ Sports spoke to Myles Copeland, the basketball player who heroically saved the ref’s life, about everything from what was going through his mind, to the current health status of John Sculli.
