42-year-old former Celtics power forward collapses and passes away

Brandon Hunter, a former center for the Boston Celtics, passed away on Tuesday at the age of 42.

According to NBC News, Hunter, who the Celtics selected out of Ohio University in the second round of the 2003 NBA Draft, passed away after falling during hot yoga.

According to Hunter’s mother-in-law Carolyn Cliett, “He regularly practiced hot yoga.” As far as we know, he was in terrific health. Just astonished, really.

Many in the NBA circle passed on condolences via social media on Wednesday, including the Orlando Magic. Hunter played just one season with Orlando during the 2004-05 campaign.

“We are terribly saddened to learn of the loss of our former teammate, Brandon Hunter,” the Magic’s public relations department posted on the X platform, formerly known as Twitter. “We send our deepest condolences to the entire Hunter family.”

The Celtics, as of Wednesday evening, had not released a statement, like the Magic, regarding Hunter’s death.

Hunter played for the Celtics for one season, appearing in 36 games as a rookie during the 2003-04 season. The 6-foot-7, 260-pound forward recorded 3.5 points and 3.3 rebounds per game.

Hunter was then plucked by the Charlotte Bobcats in the NBA expansion draft before being traded to the Magic for Keith Bogans. After his one season with the Magic, Hunter enjoyed a long career playing overseas in Europe.
