28-year old Kerusch, who’s spent a season with Greek side Aris Thessaloniki, announced the news on Tuesday.
“Hello fans. I have cancer. I’m sad to announce that I won’t be able to participate in the team’s preparation with my wonderful teammates. I hope to return next season. I’m a fighter and I can’t wait to come back”, he mentions.
The news brought a tidal wave of support from BBL teams, including Brose Bamberg and Walter Tigers:
