It was confirmed today that Nene of the Denver Nuggets had a testicular tumor removed yesterday; it is not known if the tumor is cancerous. Rumors and speculation had run rampant since the announcement late last week of Nene's decision to take an indefinite leave from the team.
"I want to thank my fans, my teammates, the Nuggets organization and everyone that's been supporting me," Nene said in a statement released by the team before Tuesday night's game at Atlanta.
"My victory will represent their victory as well. Thanks for being with me in this moment. I will remember all the appreciation. I thank God that we could detect this at such an early stage."
A biopsy will determine if the tumor is cancerous. Our thoughts go out to Nene and his family. Stay tuned...Keywords: le basketbawl
