Prominent NBA agent Dan Fegan was killed in an auto accident this morning near Aspen, Colorado, reports Erica Robbie of The Aspen Times.
The 56-year-old Fegan represented some of the biggest names in the league before a 2017 split with Independent Sports & Entertainment agency. In June of last year, Fegan filed a $30MM lawsuit against Hank Ratner of ISE, claiming fraud and contractual interference.
According to the Colorado State Patrol, Fegan was driving an SUV that was hit by a Roaring Fork Transportation Authority bus along Highway 82. Two passengers, including Fegan’s 5-year-old son, suffered serious injuries and were airlifted to a hospital in Denver.
“The bus didn’t have time to avoid the collision, so it broadsided the other vehicle and knocked it into the median,” said Roaring Fork CEO Dan Blankenship.
At one time, Fegan’s clients included Dwight Howard, John Wall, DeMarcus Cousins, Nene and Ricky Rubio. He was listed among the top agents in the country in 2016 by Forbes magazine.
