The Captain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (– not Daryl Dragon).
While this is sad news, I am very hopeful since it is a treatable form of the disease.
I owe my love of basketball and the NBA to Kareem, after having seen him fight Bruce Lee (as Hakim) in Game of Death.
Keep fighting on, Cap’n.
I lost my cousin, Samuel I. Obeto, to a particularly virulent form of leukemia a few years ago. I regret all those things left undone, for he was truly a good man. May his soul rest in peace.
