Abdul-Jabbar can use his superstar status to raise eyebrows and raise awareness of his illness in hopes it will raise spirits help prevent alienation to those affected by the disease.

We here at Protect the Paint sincerely wish Abdul Jabbar a successful treatment, and look forward to Captain Skyhook brightening the NBA world for years to come as an ambassador and spokesman for Leukemia awareness.

We tip our hat to you Kareem, and wish you the absolute best!
