NBA community reacts to death of Dan Fegan
The NBA community lost one of its members Sunday when longtime agent Dan Fegan died in a car accident.
Though Fegan's clientele and influence had waned in recent months, the loss was felt deeply throughout the league, by everyone from players (many of them his former clients), to owners, to current and former front-office executives.
Here were some of the reactions from around the NBA.

You were a great man and a better friend. I knew I liked you since the moment we met. As I saw you in your bathrobe and slippers I thought I like this guy. Thank you for everything you’ve done for me. #RipDanFegan

Tough news to hear. I became good friends with Dan and remember when he told me he was going to be a father. He was so excited and really enjoyed fatherhood. RIP Dan Fegan. https://t.co/BZCj8Px8JB

Deeply saddened by this. No matter what you ever thought about Dan, & he was wildly misunderstood by many, you respected & admired the passion & ferocity with which he represented his friends. I learned a great deal from "Dan Paul John" and I will be forever grateful to him. https://t.co/dkjuOJsTyg
