Former NBA guard Nate Robinson, who rose to prominence by winning multiple NBA Slam Dunk titles, is in need of a potentially life-saving organ transplant. 

Robinson, who has been dealing with kidney failure for several years, revealed that he "doesn't have long to live," if he does not receive a new kidney. In 2021, Robinson said he decided to share his personal health battle so he could "be the voice for all those who are having trouble speaking about this illness, and come together for a greater cause: our health."
