    Former NBA Player Jackson Vroman (34) found dead in a pool - COD?

    Former NBA player Jackson Vroman was found dead in his pool at his home in L.A., the Coroner's Office confirmed to Us Weekly on Tuesday, June 30. He was 34.

    The Phoenix Suns first confirmed the tragic news via Twitter on Monday, June 29. "We are very saddened to learn of the passing of Jackson Vroman," the team tweeted on Monday night, alongside a photo of the forward in action. "Our thoughts are with his family during this time."

    The Lebanese Basketball team also reported of Vroman's sudden death via its official Twitter account. "We sadly announce the death of former Lebanese national team player Jackson Vroman in a tragic car accident," the team wrote, alongside a photo of the late athlete.

    It was later revealed that Vroman was not killed in a car crash. The L.A. County's Department of Medical Examiner-Coroner told Us that Vroman was found dead in a pool at his home that morning.

    "He has not been examined yet but we can confirm that he was discovered at the bottom of a pool," the coroner told Us. "There was no indication, however, that he hit his head anywhere. He did not have any chronic or acute medical condition that would be the reason why he was found at the bottom of the pool."

    Someone messaged the MDS FB asking if anyone had more info about the COD. I remember reading about this at the time and someone tweeted that there was footage of him slipping and hitting his head before falling into the pool? Can anyone find anything?

    Coroner's office: Signs of drugs and alcohol use at Vroman's home


    There were signs of drug and alcohol use at former Iowa State standout Jackson Vroman's Los Angeles-area residence after he drowned in his pool, a spokesman for the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner's department said.

    Vroman, 34, was found by roommates in a pool at their house on June 29. Coroner office spokesman Craig Harvey said Wednesday that, according to his roommates' statements, Vroman and the roommates stayed up late "partying" and consumed alcohol.

    Harvey added that a camera fixed on the pool area shows Vroman sitting poolside, where he appeared to be intoxicated, before his death. The video later shows Vroman apparently losing his balance and falling into the pool at about 3:30 a.m. on June 29. Roommates eventually found him in the pool and called 911.

    According to Harvey, there were also indications of drug use at the house. The coroner's office is waiting for toxicology and blood-alcohol results on Vroman.

    "We're just waiting for the toxicology to see if he had anything else on board that may have complicated his situation," Harvey said.

    This has to be the lamest pro athlete death ever. Fucking ever. This is how toddlers die, not people who push their bodies to their physical peak.

    For shame.
