NBA Ben10 Thanks Fans for Prayers During Recovery

NBA Ben10 is on the mend after back-to-back shootings earlier this year, and he hopes to be walking by Christmas after being reportedly paralyzed.

In a video post shared to social media on Wednesday night (June 17), the Baton Rouge, La. rapper thanked his supporters and revealed he's estimating to be back on his feet by the festive holiday.

"To all the ones who prayed for me, thank you for the good prayers. I’m still in this joint," he says in the clip. "We are shooting for Christmas for me to be up whipping your a*s again. Gang."

The Never Broke Again affiliate was shot at the Confessions restaurant in Houston on April 8, following an attempted robbery on Detroit rapper Allstar JR, who was also in attendance. JR was able to grab a gun during the incident and fire off multiple shots, hitting at least two people, including Ben.

Houston authorities later revealed that Ben10 had suffered "irreversible paralysis of the lower extremities" from a sustained spine injury, according to felony charges filed against JR in Harris County Court for aggravated assault.

Just five weeks after that shooting, WBRZ reported that NBA Ben10 was shot once again during an altercation in his hometown of Baton Rouge. He was one of three people injured in the incident, but no further information was released.
