Magic shooting guard J.J Redick will miss Monday night’s game against Atlanta to be with his brother, David, who is undergoing surgery Monday to remove a tumor on his spine. Redick is expected to leave after Saturday’s game in Orlando against the Golden State Warriors. Redick said David Redick, 20, a former tight end at Marshall, will have surgery at Duke University Medical Center.
“He’s a little freaked out,” J.J. said Wednesday before the Magic faced the Washington Wizards. “I’m taking a couple days to be with him and the family.”
J.J. said his brother, who lived with him last season in Orlando, underwent tests after feeling numbness in a calf. “We thought he had a herniated disk — like what I had [J.J. had a back problem before the Magic selected him in the 2006 draft.],” J.J. said. “But it ended up being more than that.”

I know that everyone who visits this site will be praying that David is going to be fine. God Bless everyone in the Redick Family.
