Cindy Imbo is not the only sports figure to have died recently, as news of other notable personalities’ passing has also been reported.
Former PBA player, champion coach, and Olympian Jimmy Mariano has died at 84, the league announced on December 7. The PBA extended condolences to his family while honoring his contributions to Philippine basketball. Mariano was remembered as a skilled left-handed shooter and one of the pioneering big men who could score from long range. He also led Presto to the 1990 All-Filipino Conference title, leaving a lasting legacy as both player and coach.
In a report last August, Israel Osamudiame, 19, a Nigerian center and new member of the University of the Philippines men’s basketball team, passed away after collapsing during practice on August 19. He was rushed to a nearby hospital but could not be revived. The university said it remained in close contact with his family, offered full support, and requested privacy as they mourned his tragic loss.
