Jamie Foxx’s April health update sent shock waves around the world. Although the medical complication remains unknown, several NBA stars like Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, and Trae Young wished for a speedy recovery. And fortunately, their wishes soon came true. Foxx, who once credited the ‘Showtime Lakers’ for paving the way for the next generation, received prayers from the star of that iconic Lakers team, Magic Johnson. This came as the 55-year-old continues to show a “lot of progression,” as per Kevin Hart.

The Django Unchained star’s daughter Corrinne Fox took to her Instagram and shared the news of her father’s health complication in mid-April. However, weeks after the statement, Foxx himself provided a promising update, and fans are relieved, to say the least.
