Had a heart attack at a speaking engagement.
Here is a great ESPN article on how he made his wealth.

Damn that sucks! I heard he was actually giving an interview and basically said "I think I'm having a heart attack".
RIP

Ugh, I saw he had a health scare today but wasn’t expecting this result. Didn’t even get to enjoy his new ownership for that long. RIP

Holy ****. This feel especially shocking since he was just coming back into the basketball/Milwaukee spotlight again with his ownership stake. RIP.

Terrible terrible news, and especially shocking in light of him only being 71 and his recent return to the spotlight here with his investment in the team. My condolences to his family. RIP.
