Although the causes are not yet officially known, the aforementioned portal assures that his death was caused by a heart attack that he suffered in his house.

Apparently Tristan Thompson left Los Angeles as soon as he heard the tragic news and would be joining his family immediately in Toronto.. Andrea would have been taken immediately to the hospital, she barely suffered the heart attack and from there she received the necessary care and they tried to resuscitate her unfortunately without success.

It should be noted that Tristan had a special relationship with his mother.with whom he often shared photos through his social networks and sharing with his children, it should be remembered that the basketball player has two children with Khloe Kardashian.

Thompson is currently without a team, this after a long and respected career within the NBA in which he was chosen by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2011 Draft.
