LOUISVILLE (WAVE) -- Marvin Stone, who played for both U of L and UK, passed away at halftime of a game in Saudi Arabia. Stone was 26 years old.

He played two and a half seasons at Kentucky and then one at Louisville. Stone reportedly walked off the court, sat down in the locker room and just passed out.

Stone was 6-10, 265 pounds.

We are still waiting on an official statement from U of L.

That is really sad news. Definitely have to think of his family at a time like this. I can't imagine losing a family member who is only 26.
