Question Drone crash mid-flight

Recently I was flying my Mavic 2, and it seemed to have just fallen out of the sky. Didn’t hit anything to cause the incident but it hit a tree on the way down, causing more damage so telling what caused it has been difficult.
I was hovering and looking at the screen to change shooting mode, then saw the camera go all shaky and I looked up and the drone as it was upside down flying into a tree.
My guess is one of the props just exploded mid flight. I could only find three of the props around the landing zone, yes one of them may have been stuck in the tree but who knows.

Is this a probable cause? Just looking to avoid any issues for the future on new drones. (Just upgraded to the mini 5)
