I know there is a bunch of good natured junk that goes on here between the fan bases, but thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family.

Former Ole Miss and Provine basketball star Justin Reed is in the fight of his life.
Reed is battling spinal cancer, and a GoFundMe page has been set up for his medical expenses. Over $16,000 has been donated in the last 3 days

Reed played for the Rebels from 2000 to 2004, leading the SEC in scoring in his final season in Oxford. He's 5th on the Ole Miss all-time scoring list and 6th in rebounds. Reed was the 2001 SEC Freshman and Newcomer of the Year. He was key on the best season in Rebel history. The 2001 Rebels won 27 games and reached the Sweet 16.

Justin Reed was a good player. Sucks to hear that. Prayers sent.

That's a hard battle and I hate it because he is so very young.

Reed is my favorite Hoop Rebs team incarnate. In my childhood bedroom, I still have a Rod Barnes-era basketball with his signature (along with the likes of Rahim Lockhart, Aaron Harper, the Jasons, etc.). He and Lockhart were the two I'd always seek out at basketball camp, and it sucks that a guy less than a decade older than me has one of the toughest forms of cancer to conquer. I hope he's able to beat it!

Not to be morbid and I will keep posting to bump this thread, but this form of cancer is one of the most painful things to go through, as I understand.
Send prayers for the family, and money if you can.

A member of the "Provine Posse". I hate that. He was a good player. Fun to watch. Hope he beats it!
