Saddened to read the news this morning. Former NBA player, Jerome Kersey has passed away at age 52. Kersey was one of my favorite players growing up. The small forwards best years were played with the Portland Trailblazers. I just remember the passion that he played with. He use to dunk really hard like he hated the rim! Kersey could have played today. He proved that when he helped the San Antonio Spurs win a championship in 1999. It feels like yesterday when I use to watch the Sonics battle the Blazers. Terry Porter and Jerome Kersey were a mean duo. They complimented one another, and both played great team ball. Goodness, the memories of those games, the memories of the Blazers going up against the G.O.A.T. and his Chicago Bulls. Prayers and Well wishes go out to Mr. Kersey’s family and friends.
