"He is feeling really well and recovering fast," Mindaugas Balciunas, general secretary of the Lithuanian Basketball Federation who visited Sabonis in hospital on Wednesday, told Reuters.
"He is in a great mood and he is not going to change his plans to run for the federation's president on October 24,"
Sabonis played for the Trail Blazers from 1995-2003 and was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in August. A year ago he was inducted into the FIBA Hall of Fame.
He won a gold medal with the Soviet Union's team at the 1988 Seoul Olympics and two Olympic bronze medals playing for Lithuania in 1992 and 1996.
