Atlanta Hawks center Jason Collier dies
October 15, 2005
ATLANTA (AP) -- Atlanta Hawks center Jason Collier died Saturday morning, possibly of cardiac arrest, the team said. He was 28.
Hawks spokesman Arthur Triche said no other details immediately were available and did not say where Collier was when he died.
The 7-foot, 260-pound Collier, a five-year NBA player, spent his first three seasons with Houston before joining Atlanta in 2003. He averaged 5.6 points and 2.9 rebounds in his career.
Collier played for Georgia Tech and was drafted by Milwaukee in the first round, with the 15th pick overall, in the 2000 NBA draft.
We are the same age. So young--->cardiac arrest..

This is so sad.
Another article said he was at home and started having trouble beating, then turned blue. His wife gave him CPR and when the paramedics arrived he had a slight pulse, but he died on route to the hospital.
