Former Bull Quintin Dailey dies in Las Vegas
LAS VEGAS -- Quintin Dailey, a former All-American basketball player who also played 10 seasons in the NBA and made the 1982-1983 all-rookie team, has died in Las Vegas. He was 49.
The Clark County Coroner's Office on Tuesday confirmed Dailey's death to The Associated Press. The office said the former University of San Francisco star died naturally of hypertensive cardiovascular disease.
Dailey played for the Bulls from 1982-86. He also played for the Los Angeles Clippers and Seattle, averaging 14.2 points a game for his career.
His death was first reported by the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
Dailey became one of the best offensive players in Dons history, leaving after three years with 1,841 points, second best in school history at the time.
He won West Coast Conference player of the year in 1981 and 1982 and was an AP All-American in 1982.
Dailey worked as a supervisor at a community center in Las Vegas for at-risk youth.
A worker who answered the phone at the center Tuesday referred questions to a county spokeswoman, who declined to comment beyond the coroner's findings.
USF officials said Dailey is survived by his daughter Quincy and son Quintin, a junior guard for Eastern Michigan.
