of nba veteran wayman tisdale dies at age 44

Former NBA veteran Tisdale dies at age 44: Three-time All-American NBA veteran Wayne Tisdale dead at age 44 after 2 year battle with cancer.
Tisdale was a three-time All-American at Oklahoma in the mid-1980s before playing a dozen years in the NBA and later becoming an accomplished jazz musician.

But those who knew Tisdale, who died Friday at a hospital in his hometown of Tulsa, Okla., recalled not only his professional gifts but a perpetually sunny outlook, even in the face of a two-year battle with cancer that took his life at 44.

Tisdale learned he had cancerous cyst below his right knee after breaking his leg in a fall at his home in Los Angeles on Feb. 8, 2007. He said then he was fortunate to have discovered the cancer early.

  1. Wayman was one of my favorite college players. He was dominating. That lefty fallaway was unstoppable.

    He also had a fine NBA career and to top it off was a great person. The fact that he was successful in many arenas speaks volumes about his character.

    He will be missed. May God rest his soul.

  2. Good post. I learn something totally new and challenging on blogs I stumbleupon on a daily basis.

    It will always be useful to read content from other authors
    and use a little something from other sites.
