Broadcast legend Dick Vitale is cancer-free, announcing Tuesday afternoon that his PET scan results revealed no cancer remaining after undergoing treatment for lymphoma and melanoma since 2021.
“OMG ALL THE PRAYERS many of [you] have sent have been answered as DR Brown who heads my cancer TEAM called & said PET SCAN came back that NO CANCER is showing,” Vitale wrote in a tweet. “I feel like a coach playing for the Final 4 has a PTPer hit a shot at buzzer. My MARCH MADNESS starts with a W baby!”
Back in January, Vitale announced he would be forced to miss the remainder of the 2021-22 college basketball season after undergoing surgery to solve his Dysplasia and ulcerated lesions of the vocal cords.
