I’m trying to cure the condition Isaiah Austin was diagnosed with. Marfan Syndrome can be such a de-habilitating disease and I hope we can treat all people affected by the disease in the future

Isaiah Austin's NBA dream was cut short by Marfan syndrome, a genetic condition that affects connective tissue and poses serious heart risks.
• Diagnosis & Draft Impact: Just four days before the 2014 NBA Draft, Austin was diagnosed with Marfan syndrome after an abnormal EKG during the NBA Combine. Genetic testing confirmed the condition, which causes enlarged heart arteries and risks of rupture during intense physical activity. Doctors advised him to quit basketball immediately.
• Emotional Toll: Austin described the moment he learned of the diagnosis as devastating, with his mother delivering the news in person. He expressed deep regret to fans who hoped to see him play professionally.
• Career Transition: Though his playing career ended, Austin pursued coaching and later joined the NBA’s development staff. He now serves as an assistant coach at Florida Atlantic University, mentoring young players.
• Health Management: Austin requires lifelong monitoring, including regular echocardiograms and medication to manage blood pressure, but maintains an optimistic outlook.
His story highlights the balance between athletic ambition and health risks. Would you like to know more about Marfan syndrome or Isaiah Austin’s current coaching role?

Should’ve just played anyways and not told anyone. Paid the doctor to lie too. At least would’ve played in the NBA do a few games.
