    The Miami Herald reported yesterday that Alonzo is scheduled to undergo kidney transplant surgery on Friday in New York.

    Best wishes to him and good luck. :thumbsup:

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Former NBA All-Star center Alonzo Mourning underwent kidney transplant surgery Friday and was in good condition.

    The kidney donor, a family member, also was in good condition.

    "Alonzo asks that all those who offered to donate a kidney to him extend that generosity to others who are waiting for transplants," his agent, Jeffrey Wechsler, said in a statement released after the surgery was completed.

    "He appreciates all the well wishes and encouragement he has received from fans all around the world, and asks that the public respect his privacy during the recovery process."</div>
