Not finding confirmation but original tweet is from Spears. Hopefully this is a hoax.

NO! RT @SpearsNBAYahoo: It's with sadness that I have learned that two friends close to former NBA player Jerome Kersey say he died today.

Read somewhere that the Blazers confirmed it.

Sad...only 52. You would expect that it was a heart attack.

These might be one of the most recent public photos of him- only a day or two ago at a HS event for African History Month with two other former Trailblazers.

Awful. I saw the picture of him speaking at a hs. Seems like he was doing good things.

It didn't seem like that Trailblazers team played that long ago, but Duckworth and Kersey are both gone now. Sad. Kersey always played hard on those teams. One of my favorite players.
