Tennessee high school basketball star, 16, dies after collapsing on the court as he asked for a drink of water

A high school basketball star has died after collapsing on the court Wednesday. 
Javon Craddock, 16, had asked his coach for water while playing a game of basketball at the Chattanooga Boys and Girl's Club right before he fell to the ground.  
His coach, E'Jay Ward, said the sophomore 'stopped playing and asked for a drink and just died,' according to the The Times Free Press.
The teen was rushed to the hospital where he was pronounced dead. 
The Chattanooga Police Department has not confirmed the cause of the teen's death.
His coach said Craddock had no known previous health issues and did not appear under distress during the game.   
'This upcoming year was going to be a breakout year for him,' Ward. 'He was probably the best shooter in the state of Tennessee.'
The teen's high school Tyner Academy paid tribute to Craddock
