ESPN Legend Dick Vitale Makes Big Cancer Battle Announcement After Prayers Poured In

In 2021, celebrated ESPN sportscaster Dick Vitale was diagnosed with lymphoma after he had to go through several surgeries for melanoma. Lymphoma is a form of cancer of the lymphatic system, and Vitale had shared his journey on his social media handles. A donation platform was also set up to help Vitale with expenses, although the legendary basketball analyst had battled through it successfully. But in January 2025, a vocal cord cancer emerged for him, as Vitale started his battle anew. However, now, in an optimistic development, Vitale has finally announced that he is cancer-free.

“OMG my Dr Rick Brown said that my PET SCAN was a success .He said to me 4 words that cancer patients LOVE to hear “YOU ARE CANCER FREE” thanks so much for all ur ,” wrote Vitale on his X account.
