Patrick Ewing was admitted to the hospital last week after being diagnosed with COVID-19.

NBA fans were fairly upset last week after it was revealed that New York Knicks legend Patrick Ewing had been hospitalized due to the Coronavirus. Ewing sent out a message on social media urging people to be safe and noting that this virus is no joke and must be taken seriously, at all costs. After a few days in the hospital, Ewing and his fans received some incredible news.

Ewing is a basketball legend and many were anxious for his condition to improve. Thankfully for everyone involved, he is feeling much better.

The Coronavirus has proven to be a lot worse than many imagined as over 1.5 million people in the United States have been infected. Not to mention, hundreds of thousands of people have died and cities around the world continue to be under lockdown. These are truly unprecedented times and it's important for everyone to stay calm and stay safe.

While this may be an extremely difficult time, there are certainly better days ahead and we can't wait for them to arrive.

Shaq Admits The Four Players He Was Scared To Play Against

Even Shaq gets scared sometimes.

NBA Hall of Famer Shaquille O'Neal, arguably the most dominant player in NBA history, was feared by many during his illustrious basketball career - but that doesn't mean he wasn't shook when he had to go up against some of the game's greatest players. 

During a recent edition of Inside The NBA, Shaq spoke candidly about the four players who scared him on the court, including Michael Jordan who flat out "terrified" the 7'1 center.

Says Shaq, "Since the statute of limitations is up - I was terrified out there." When asked how long the terror of going up against MJ lasted, Shaq told his co-hosts, "The whole game."

"For one, he's the greatest player. Two, I was worried about him dunking on me and having to go back and face the fellas. And then three, he was just so hot. Like, the stuff that I saw when I was in college on tv, it's like really real. I was terrified."

In addition to his fear of playing against Jordan, Shaq admitted to being scared of fellow Hall of Famers Patrick Ewing, David Robinson and Charles Barkley. But not Houston Rockets' legend Hakeem Olajuwon because, "Olajuwon wasn't really mean. He was nice but he wasn't mean. Barkley was mean."
