AUSTIN, Tex. - Dennis Johnson, the star NBA guard who was part of three championship teams including the Seattle Supersonics, died Thursday at 52.

"He is deceased and is in our building. He will be autopsied," said Mayra Freeman, a spokeswoman for the Travis County Medical Examiner's Office.

ESPN The Magazine's Ric Bucher says Johnson, who coaches the Austin Toros of the NBA Developmental League, collapsed and died during practice.

Johnson, a five-time All-Star, played on title teams with the Boston Celtics and Seattle SuperSonics and was the MVP of the 1979 Finals when the Sonics beat the Washington Bullets.

Known throughout the league as "DJ," Johnson played in five NBA All-Star games and was named to the All-Defensive First Team six times.

In 14 NBA seasons, he scored 15,535 points (a 14.1 points-per-game average) and averaged 17.3 points in 180 playoff games
