Former Boston Celtics big man Scot Pollard is a survivor — and not just because of his stint on the popular reality television show of the same name. Not only has the 2008 champion center been dealing with a heart condition that has had him in and out of the hospital, but he has also had to put up with a bizarre conspiracy theory that he is faking the ailment.
The Kansas alum recently took to social media to draw back the curtain on his ordeal, his wife even weighing in on his condition to (hopefully) silence the doubters pushing the narrative Pollard is making it all up.
“Ever been on a heart transplant list and then have someone say you’re faking it?” he asked via Larry Brown Sports’ Darryn Albert. “It’s super weird.”
