No cause has been given by the coroner"s office yet and the club is yet to comment on the loss.

Dejean-Jones was acquired by the Pelicans in December last year after averaging 19.2 points and 5.1 rebounds in the NBA"s development league.

He was signed to a 10-day NBA contract in January with New Orleans and used his 14 appearances to average 5.6 points and 3.4 rebounds.

The stint impressed the club and he was offered a three-year contract extension in February.
