His aunt also setup a GoFundMe page to give Duran a proper burial and it has raised over $28,000.

A vigil was held at Golden Valley High School and another one will be held next week following Duran’s death.

Speaking to News 11, his Junior Varsity Coach Jack Booker said: “At first, I didn’t believe it. I was in denial. Who would expect anything like that to happen,” adding that the news left him ‘devastated.’

A family friend, Nellie Barragan, also told KFSN that she does not think a medical condition contributed to Duran’s death.

“He played football, was in boxing. He just finished basketball. He had no health problems. That’s what they’re saying is that maybe it was a medical condition. It was not.”
