Alonzo Mourning, Basketball Hall Of Famer, Had Prostate Removed After Cancer Diagnosis

Alonzo Mourning, an American former basketball player, revealed that he had surgery to remove his prostate after a stage 3 cancer diagnosis. He is cancer-free following the March procedure. Mourning is determined to get regular prostate-specific antigen blood tests as part of the screening process. He shared his thoughts on the disease, saying, “What scares me about this disease is that there are so many men who have that cancer in them, and they don’t know it.” “The only way to find out is to get their PSA checked regularly.” “3.3 million men are living in the U.S. with prostate cancer, and many don’t even know it. I was one of those guys,” Mourning added.
