Legendary ESPN analyst Dick Vitale will not be present at the Final Four, he confirmed on Saturday.
Dickie V, as he’s known, was diagnosed with lymphoma back in October, and had surgery on his vocal cords earlier this year. Because of various tests and procedures, the analyst has not worked a college basketball game since November.
His doctors once again advised him not to make the trip to New Orleans. However, he tweeted on Thursday that his blood work is looking “super,” and he recently shared that his scans showed no more cancer.
