Family and friends continue to mourn this week's passing of Kevin Duckworth, 44, due to congestive heart failure from an enlarged heart. A memorial service for Duckworth will be held at Memorial Coliseum in Portland on Saturday, August 30th at 11 a.m. Fans are invited to attend.
As an Eastern Illinois alum and 2nd round pick in the 1986 NBA draft, "Duck" enjoyed an 11 year NBA career that included time with the LA Clippers, Milwaukee, San Antonio, and Washington, but is most affectionately esteemed as a member of the Portland Trail Blazers.
