Black Sports : Former NBA Player Darryl Dawkins - CHOCOLATE THUNDER - DEAD AT 58

This is from yesterday's NY POST

Former Nets and longtime friends Micheal Ray Richardson and Otis Birdsong were walking back from grabbing a bite to eat Thursday morning in West Palm Beach, Fla. Richardson, phone in hand, started screaming.

“Sugar has been having trouble with his knee,” Birdsong said. “I thought his knee was hurting.”

The situation was far worse. Richardson had just received a message that good friend and former teammate Darryl Dawkins, the first player ever drafted directly out of high school into the NBA, was dead. He was 58.

“I can’t believe. I just can’t believe it, bro,” Richardson said. “He was one of my closest friends.”

Dawkins’ family released a statement Thursday afternoon, attributing the legend’s death to a heart attack.

“It is with great sadness that we share the passing of our beloved husband and father, Darryl Dawkins, who succumbed today to a heart attack. Darryl touched the hearts and spirits of so many with his big smile and personality, ferocious dunks, but more than anything, his huge, loving heart,” the statement said.

Okay, good deal, but where is the link to this information from the NY post?


So, we have two articles with no links to either?
