Former NBA player and front office executive Lance Blank passed away Thursday.
Blank, who was the former general manager of the Suns, has worked with several other teams including the Clippers, Cavs, and Spurs.
The Blanks have also played for the Pistons and Timberwolves.
“Lance was a light to all who knew him. It was an honor to have him as one of my closest friends. I am forever grateful for all the support he has given me over the years. And his legacy will live on, not just by his family, but by all those whose lives he touched for the better.” NBA CEO Joe Dumars said.
