NBA champions and “Survivor” have been found to be a heart donor for the competitor Scott Pollard, his wife said on social media on Friday.
“it’s go time!” Don Pollard posted on X, earlier known as Twitter. “Please keep the prayers coming for Scott, Surgeon, Donor and his family, who lost their loved ones. This donor gave the most amazing gift of life and we are grateful forever.”
Pollard, who turned 49 on Monday, required a transplant due to a genetic condition, which was probably triggered by the virus caught in 2021. The same situation killed his father, who died on 54.
The shape of Pollard complicated complex efforts to find a donor with a heart to fit its 6 – -foot -11, 260 -pound body. He was admitted for intensive care at the Vendorbilat University Medical Center on 7 February.
He said, “I am living here until I get heart,” he said in a text message to the Associated Press from his Nashville, Tennessi, hospital room. “My heart has become weak. (Doctors) agree that this heart is my best shot to get quickly.”
After the first -round draft pickle of 1997, Kansas was a useful big man from the bench for an NBA career that spread over 11 years and five teams. He played 55 seconds on Cleveland Cavalers’ visit in the NBA final in 2007, and won it next year with Celtics despite the season-ending ankle injury in February.
Pollard retired after that season, then dubbed in broadcast and acting. He was a contestant in the 32nd season of “Survivor”, where he was voted with eight castway in 27 days.
