With the Warriors an incredibly difficult time for his family friends and all of us who had the incredible pleasure to work with him in addition to being a terrific basketball coach coach Aon was one of the most positive and beautiful human beings I have ever known someone who brought joy and light to

Every single day with his passion and energy we grieve with and for his wife Natasha their children Nia and Masa this long is unfathomable here is Raptor’s head coach Darko rovic on the passing I know I knew de since um since I was a teenager he was a role

Model as a player as a man as a husband as a coach somebody that I really admired and have a lot of respect for unfortunately last night uh his heart stopped working and he left his wife and two kids behind and a big big Legacy

Um this is a really sad day for for whole NBA Community my condolences to his family and and Golden State Warriors as well all right Sam uh you and I have talked about coaches as a fraternity and specifically over the past couple of weeks of just health and and how much

Guys go through can you take us through what it’s like to lose a part of that Community it’s tough man I unfortunately I’ve been involved had lost a high school teammate I lost a college teammate I lost the NBA teammate in Malik CA and it’s tough man

Because it’s that void first of all it’s just so shocking when it happens unexpectedly and then it’s that void to continue you know this person has a big presence in your locker room you used to seeing this person every day you’re used to working out with this person then all

Of a sudden to be gone at this point of the season when you’re together and in that struggle and that fight this is going to be tough for the Warriors to get get past brenon because again it’s one thing if it happens in the off season and then you come together for

The service but this happened during the season and so to show up tomorrow in the building go on the bus on the plane and he’s not there that’s when it’s going to really hit you in practice in the film room and so it’s going to be something

Man that just just going to be tough for this team to deal with for the rest of the season yeah it’s gonna be super tough for this team to deal with because we’re all a family it’s a Brotherhood and you’re around your teammates and your coaching staff during the

Basketball season more than you around your actual family so to lose somebody like this in this type of tragic manner um just something that no one could have foreseen that’s one of those things that sticks with you it it hurts uh the pain never goes away and it’s one of those

Things that just takes time yeah ah condolences to the Golden State Warriors and the entire NBA Community specifically the coaches around the league
