"What scares me about this disease is that there are so many men walking around feeling great and have that cancer in them and they don't know it," Mourning told ESPN. "The only way to find out is to get their blood tested and get their PSA checked. There are 3.3 million men living in the U.S. with prostate cancer, and many don't even know it. I was one of those guys." Alonzo Mourning, the 7-time NBA All-Star and NBA Champion spoke to ESPN about his recent prostate removal and the importance of early detection through PSA screenings.
