Villanova's Ryan Arcidiacono, Daniel Ochefu Surprise 4-Year-Old Who Has Cancer

Kyle NewportApr 14, 2016

As well as they might have played during the 2016 NCAA tournament, it's what Villanova's Ryan Arcidiacono and Daniel Ochefu did off the court recently that left a family of Wildcats fans speechless.

Fresh off a national championship, Arcidiacono and Ochefu made a trip to the Davis family's house to give them the surprise of a lifetime. Both mom and dad went to Villanova, and their four-year-old son, Blaise, is a big Wildcats fan as well.

Not long before his fourth birthday, however, Blaise was diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer. According to emails via Crossing Broad, a family friend stepped up to redo the Davis' basement to give the youngster a place to play throughout the recovery process.
