Family: Ex-UNC, NBA big man Eric Montross battling cancer

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) The family of former North Carolina and NBA big man Eric Montross says he has begun treatments for cancer.

Montross' family issued a statement through the school on Saturday announcing the 51-year-old's diagnosis, though it didn't specify the nature of the cancer.

“We are all touched by the responses our entire family has received since the news became public,” the family said. "Your support is more than appreciated; it is welcomed as a necessary part of beating cancer one day at a time. Our family is dealing with Eric’s diagnosis head-on - the only way we know how. And we are all in this fight together.”
