Rest in peace, Anthony Mason

Woke up this morning to sad news after it had seemed like Anthony Mason was on the mend following heart surgery:

A source has confirmed the passing of former Knick Anthony Mason early this morning. Incredibly sad news.

Mason was 48. All thoughts are with the family and friends of a great, beloved Knick who died far too young. Rest in peace, Mase.

We'll have more in Mase's memory this weekend.
