Former NBA Commissioner David Stern continues to be in serious condition after undergoing emergency brain surgery last week.
The league issued a statement Tuesday saying that the 77-year-old “is receiving great care and surrounded by his loved ones. The Stern family and everyone at the NBA appreciates the incredible outpouring of support. Our thoughts and prayers remain with David and his family.”
On Thursday, Dec. 12, Stern suffered a brain hemorrhage while eating at a New York restaurant and was rushed to a hospital for emergency surgery.
Stern served as NBA Commissioner for 30 years before Adam Silver stepped into the role in 2014. Stern has remained engaged in the league, holding the title of NBA Commissioner Emeritus.
