Had a funny hitch in his shooting motion. Never quite looked comfortable playing against A-level competition. Was not much loved by BBall people I hung with circa 1990 (in Portland). Always felt he held the Blazers back somewhat.
Still, I know nothing about him personally. And 44 is much, much too young.
My sympathy for his family and friends.

Re: Duckworth passes away
RIP
I never knew him and I barely watched him play, but still so sad. I actually had him on a sim league team - he was my backup for Alonzo, of all things.
Seriously, this is too sad based on what I've heard.

They are showing game 1 of the 1992 Finals right now on NBA TV. Duckworth just scored the first 3 points.
