  • Three-time NBA champion Dwyane Wade opened up about his kidney cancer diagnosis and how he learned to lean on the strength of his loved ones in an interview with "Today" show's Jenna Bush Hager.

Dwyane Wade, the former NBA star, has publicly shared his experience with kidney cancer, which he was diagnosed with in 2013. In an interview with Men's Health, Wade discussed how his diagnosis came about after a routine physical exam revealed a tumor on his left kidney. He underwent surgery to remove the tumor and part of his kidney, which fortunately was successful, and he has since been cancer-free.
