Zickefoose, aged 67, collapsed during a game on Nov. 6 betweeen the Blazers and Mavericks in the fourth quarter. It was a stunning scene and players and fans alike stood with their hands over their mouths while EMTs performed CPR on the fan. She later died at Legacy Emmanuel Hospital, just up the road from the Moda Center.
From the Blazers’ ForwardCenter.net:
Portland has one of the most well-respected fan bases in the league and this is a classy way for both the organization and the players to go about honoring Zickefoose’s memory.
