Index – Sports – One of the most talented basketball players in his age group has died at the age of 17

One of Alabama’s most promising talents, a Benson Valley High School graduate, died Thursday after suddenly becoming ill during practice and collapsing on the field. The young player was taken to the hospital, but his life could not be saved.

According to press reports, Caleb White died of a heart attack, but this has not yet been officially confirmed, and the coroner has not made a decision. White’s parents said their son had no previous heart problems.

The 17-year-old was ranked the third-best player in his age group at Alabama, while ESPN experts named him one of the 25 most promising basketball players in the state. After his senior year, he was sure to be selected by a university, and then he would have had the opportunity to play in the NBA.

A few weeks ago, LeBron James’ son, Bronie James, also fell into court due to a heart attack, but in his case the tragedy was averted.
