In November 2015, Kyle Kuric was diagnosed with a brain tumor and had to undergo multiple serious surgeries to remove the actual tumor and then to treat post-op swelling.
The challenge was big but not only did he successfully recover, he actually fully returned to action five months later and has been playing at the top level ever since.
“I couldn’t understand really what was going on. They very simply told me – ‘You have a tumor and we were going to operate’,” Kuric said, admitting he underestimated the whole problem, thinking he would be back on the court in a few days. “Later on, I found out how serious it was.”
The American sharpshooter talked about how he coped with it all, the feelings and trying to understand everything after waking up from the coma, as well as his return to the court after recovery and how his view on life has changed.
