BRAVO TV STAR DWIGHT EUBANKS PUBLICLY SHARES PROSTATE CANCER DIAGNOSIS
"Real Housewives of Atlanta" star joins a growing chorus of cultural influencers rallying behind ZERO Prostate Cancer urging Black men to know their risk and get screened. ALEXANDRIA, Va., June 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- As National Men's Health and Pride Month kicks-off, Bravo TV star and Atlanta hair stylist Dwight Eubanks announced that he has been diagnosed with stage four prostate cancer and is channeling pain into purpose by joining ZERO Prostate Cancer (ZERO), the nation's leading advocacy and support organization for prostate cancer awareness, as a brand ambassador. Eubanks is a prominent hair stylist and entertainment icon who has spent over 30 years in fashion and cosmetology. He rose to fame on the Bravo reality series "The Real Housewives of Atlanta", and also appeared on "Married to Medicine" as creative director of the Lisa Nicole Fashion Line. Joining forces with ZERO, Eubanks will help raise awareness about prostate cancer and call for Black men to know their numbers and get screened. Today, one in six Black men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during their lifetime. Moreover, Black men are 70% more likely to be diagnosed and twice as likely to die from it. "A prostate cancer diagnosis is crushing but I'm grateful to still be in this fight and use my platform to help others impacted by this disease," said Eubanks. "It is critical that men — especially Black men who are disproportionately diagnosed with prostate cancer — become their own health advocates and push for information, screenings, and lifesaving care. I am deeply thankful for ZERO's support and partnership and I hope by sharing my story I will help to save more lives." Every two minutes a man in the U.S. is diagnosed with prostate cancer. This year alone, over 300,000 new cases of prostate cancer are expected to be diagnosed and over 35,000 men will die from the disease — fathers, uncles and sons lost too soon. "Though we know exciting medical breakthroughs are on the horizon to treat those with the disease, awareness and being proactive to diagnose prostate cancer early are critical," said ZERO Board of Directors Medical Chair, Dr. Alicia Morgans, a Genitourinary Medical Oncologist at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Associate Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School. "The truth is prostate cancer can be curable with a 99% survival rate at 5 years when caught in the earliest stage. That's why Dwight's story and message to other men to get screened and know your family history is so powerful. Screening can be the difference between life and death." "This is more than a media moment — it's a movement," said Courtney Bugler, president and CEO of ZERO Prostate Cancer. "Dwight's voice and story will help to redefine how Black men talk about this devastating disease within their communities —removing the stigma, replacing fear with facts and turning silence into survival." In Eubanks' new role as a ZERO Brand Ambassador, he will help advocate for more access to screenings and quality care–supporting ZERO's current initiatives like Blitz the Barriers, which aims to save 100,000 lives by 2035 in communities hardest hit or most devastated by prostate cancer. About ZERO Prostate Cancer ZERO Prostate Cancer (ZERO) is on a mission to improve and save lives from prostate cancer through advocacy, awareness, education, and support. Formerly known as the National Prostate Cancer Coalition, ZERO was founded in 1996 to stand up for people impacted by prostate cancer. Today, ZERO serves as the nation's leading prostate cancer organization, advancing a future where prostate cancer detection is early, support is unwavering, and care is accessible to all. For nearly 30 years, ZERO has led the way in prostate cancer advocacy, screenings, and partnerships, successfully unlocking funding toward breakthrough discoveries, treatments, and lifesaving access to care. As the nation's #1 provider of prostate cancer resources, programs, and services, ZERO has supported millions of people at-risk or diagnosed, and their families. As the voice of the prostate cancer community, ZERO's urgent focus on breaking barriers to survival—by closing gaps in diagnosis, treatment, and care—brings critical attention to those most likely to be impacted by this disease.

Gilbert Arenas on the biggest difference between Dwight Howard and Joel Embiid: "Dwight was an animal"
The dominance Dwight Howard once held in the NBA might never be fully appreciated, especially since he was left off the NBA's 75th Anniversary Team. But Gilbert Arenas, in his trademark blunt and unapologetic style, recently tried to shed light on just how terrifying D12 was in his prime. He painted a picture of physical dominance rarely seen today, describing how defenders braced themselves for the beating their bodies would endure whenever they were assigned to guard the three-time Defensive Player of the Year. Advertisement One such example involved Malik Allen, who went to great lengths to protect himself against Howard, something which "Agent Zero" is fear that the likes of Joel Embiid can never instill in the hearts of the opposition. Arenas on just how strong prime Dwight was Sure, "The Process" resume sparkles. He's already led the league in scoring twice, something Dwight never did. On paper, Embiid looks like an unstoppable force when he decides to impose his will on a game. But Arenas insists that what the eight-time All-Star brought to the core - especially in terms of raw, physical dominance - is something that makes him far superior to prime Embiid. "Like Dwight goes hard," Arenas said. "You know, like a little rubber-like for yoga blocks, he had to tape a yoga block to his chest. I believe that it was Malik Allen… Malik Allen had to wear that rubber thing, had to tape it. He just had this bulge out because when Dwight… the elbow was messinghim up and it was hurting the dude. When the practice was over, Dwight was (doing) 500 pushups; Dwight was an animal." However, the manner in which Evan Turner reacted to the victim being Mark Allen, speaks volumes about the admission. The latter wasn't an all-time big man but he wasn't a slouch either, being 6'10" and 225lb. Yet when he went up against Howard, he made sure to take precautions to keep his body away from long-term harm.

It's not just about numbers; it's about impact. Howard led a team to the NBA Finals by his fifth season, something Embiid hasn't yet done. More importantly, Howard was durable. Embiid, on the other hand, is constantly shadowed by injury concerns. If he wants to elevate himself into that elite tier, he'll need to stay healthy and dominate consistently with his raw strength, something in the same way Nikola Jokic is doing in today's game. Advertisement That being said, Arenas' comments also highlight how former players often see the game from a deeper, more experiential angle. They can spot how Joel might be a statistical juggernaut, but he doesn't strike the same fear in the opposition's hearts as Howard did, during his prime years. That fear was felt when Howard was playing defense as well. Not only did he have the ability to defend most centers one-on-one without any help, but he was also a terrific help defender as well. Most guards knew he was operating in the paint defensively and that is where most of Dwght's blocks came from.
