Tiffany Jackson, a former Texas Longhorns basketball star who was later a top-five WNBA draft pick, died Monday after a lengthy bout with breast cancer, the school announced. She was 37.

Jackson was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015.

"Tiffany had a great career and was an impact player," former Texas coach Jody Conradt said. "She was recognized for her all-around game and the fact that she was tremendously mobile and could play multiple positions. She was beloved by teammates, and we share in the sadness of her passing."
