Fabricio’s mother told the police that the player arrived home on Friday and went to bed. This Saturday, when she went to call her son, she found out he was unconscious and called an ambulance, which verified the player’s death. 15 mins ago – via Globo Esporte

RIP Fab.  Horrible news.

Very sad to hear a young man gone way too early.

To be absent from the body is to be in the presence of God.

Brazillians are mega Catholic - he'd like that one.

I just remember liking the dude for falling off his chair at a rookie photo op. He laughed it off.. Seemed like a good kid

I 'm Brazilian and I've never heard of any heart condition that would be slowing him down. He was playing for Brasilia, in the capital city of the country, one of the most traditional teams in South America.

Amen.

His death is shocking news. I wasn't a fan of Fab the player, but this is sad.
There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, 'All right, then, have it your way.'

You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body.

If in fact Melo did pass away from a genetic heart problem, it is getting ridiculous how many Celtics & former Celtics have suffered from this problem and I am shocked that through all types of professional testings no one was able to pick it up.

Watching him play when he was in College he had all the physical gifts in the world to be a top NBA player just didn't seem to have the BBall I.Q similar to JaVale McGee.
