Basketball as Therapy: "Basketball means everything to me,” Druppal shared. “I’ve always said basketball was my chemotherapy when I battled cancer. After I was given six months to live, I denied undergoing treatment and just wanted to be around the game, because that’s what made me feel better and at peace.”
