    Mel Turpin dead at 49

    Turpin apparently commited suicide earlier today. He was suffering from diabetes at the time he took his own life.

    Turpin played from 1984-85 through 1988-89 with stops in Cleveland, Utah, and finally Washington, who originally drafted him in '84.

    Turpin was a college hoops great at Kentucky from 1980-84.
