Deke Upshaw Dies

Deke Upshaw, a swingman for the Detroit Pistons' G League affiliate who collapsed on the court during a game over the weekend, died Monday.

Upshaw, 26, died at a hospital, the Grand Rapids Drive said. No cause was disclosed. He collapsed Saturday night near the end of a game against the Long Island Nets.

The Pistons held a moment of silence in Upshaw's memory Monday night before their home game against the Los Angeles Lakers.

The G League also pushed back the start of its playoffs, delaying not just the Drive's upcoming game but the entire first round.
