AP -
Don Marbury, the father of Knicks guard Stephon Marbury, died Sunday night during the team's home loss to the Suns.

Team spokesman Jonathan Supranowitz said no other information was immediately available, other than Don Marbury wasn't at Madison Square Garden when he died. Stephon Marbury was escorted out the arena by security shortly after the game.
Man things have been rough for Marbury lately, I send my prayers to him and his family.

RIP Don Marbury

NEW YORK -- Don Marbury, the father of Knicks point guard Stephon Marbury, died last night during the team's home loss to the Phoenix Suns.

The New York Times reports on its Web site that Marbury's father had chest pains when he was taken from the arena. Stephon Marbury, whose aunt recently died, scored 21 points Sunday night.

He dressed quickly without speaking to reporters.

Marbury has endured a tough first month of the season. His aunt, on his mother's side of the family, died Nov. 19. Marbury said at the time he also had another recent death in his family.

He also left the team during a road trip when coach Isiah Thomas was considering removing him from the starting lineup.

Don and Mabel Marbury had six other children, four sons and two daughters.

Wow this sucks. His dad was at the game, watching his son. Then at halftime his dad had to go to the hospital, and he played, unaware of happening, and then by the time he went to the locker room after losing a game where he had a good game (21 points), and he learns that his father died.

RIP Don Marbury
