He's expected to make a full recovery.

Hope everything turns out OK.

Good to hear that he's expected to make a full recovery. We've unfortunately lost a couple of other former NBA players due to heart problems in recent years; Kareem's a bit older at 68, but that's still fairly young by today's life expectancy.
