Ernie Vandeweghe, who attended medical school while playing for the New York Knicks and later served as the Lakers' team doctor, has died. He was 86.
Vandeweghe died Sunday at home in Newport Beach of natural causes, according to his son, Kiki, who was a basketball star at UCLA and in the NBA before becoming a general manager and coach.
Born Ernest Maurice Vandeweghe Jr. in Montreal on Sept. 12, 1928, he grew up on New York's Long Island. Drafted by the Knicks in 1949 from Colgate University, where he was All-America, the 6-foot-3 shooting guard and small forward averaged 9.5 points and 2.4 assists per game in six seasons.
"I was very active on the court," Vandeweghe told The Times in 1980 while describing his style of play. "I got in everyone's way. I was the kind of guy who annoyed the hell out of everyone."
He was very active off the court too, attending medical school at Columbia University during his first few years in the NBA.
To stay in shape he would run up flights of stairs, noting in a 1981 interview with the New York Times that some of his classes were on the 18th floor at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital. He skipped some road trips and kept up a hectic travel schedule getting to Knick games on the East Coast while studying medicine.
After being sidelined by a knee injury, Vandeweghe played his last NBA games in the 1955-56 season, then practiced as a pediatrician and served as an Air Force doctor in Germany.
He and his wife, Colleen Hutchins Vandeweghe, who had been Miss America of 1952, moved to the Los Angeles area, and he continued his medical practice as they raised their four children.
When the Lakers moved from Minneapolis to Los Angeles in 1960, owner Bob Short hired Vandeweghe to be team physician. The doctor also advised Short to put Chick Hearn on the payroll as radio play-by-play announcer, establishing a team tradition that lasted for 42 years until Hearn's death in 2002.
Vandeweghe's wife of 57 years died in 2010. Besides son Kiki, who played forward for Denver, Portland, New York and the Clippers in the NBA, Vandeweghe's survivors include daughters Tauna Vandeweghe, a U.S. Olympic swimmer and volleyball player, and Heather Vandeweghe Shannon, who played on the U.S. women's polo team; and son Bruk, a professional beach volleyball player. Among Vandeweghe's grandchildren is another world-class athlete, Coco Vandeweghe, who competes on the women's professional tennis tour.

Liverpool University has launched an investigation after a script for the Medical Students Society (LMSS) annual play emerged featuring a character being drugged and raped.
The script also mocks the anti-rape slogan "no means no" and was one of three options written by fourth-year medical students for the annual concert, known as Smoker.
The event runs every year and involves each year group performing a pantomime-style play based on an existing story, with sexual elements added. Another script included a female protagonist being referred to as "an ugly, frigid mess" because she would rather study than go out and sleep with someone.
Laura*, a Liverpool medical student, said:
This group represents our future NHS and its doctors. As a medical school we should be pioneers when it comes to social responsibility and professionalism. Within the school, however, it seems that professionalism is something which merely exists within earshot of patients.
The play has been heavily criticised on social media:
The university, the LMSS and the Guild, Liverpool universitys students union, released a joint statement condemning the script.
They said: We expect our students to comply with the universitys policy on student conduct and discipline and adhere to appropriate standards of behaviour.
The university, the Guild of Students and the Liverpool Medical Students Society are shocked at the content of this material which is clearly unacceptable. The university is investigating.
The university and the Guild will continue to work together in combating sexism and sexual harassment.

A time capsule from the early 1900s was recovered on Oct. 24.
by Alexa Zizzi 11 November 2014
A 1930s issue of Temple University Weekly, Temples student-run newspaper, sits on display at Ginsburg Library. Alexa Zizzi | TTN
Buried deep in a cornerstone near the historic 1930 building, a large rectangular copper box was packed full of Philadelphia and Temple history artifacts.
Temple Medical School president, faculty and staff at the time left behind newspapers, periodicals and photographs.
Though Temples Medical School no longer resides in the building at the corner of Broad and Ontario streets, a piece of its history was preserved in this 84-year-old time capsule discovered at the demolition three weeks ago.
The time capsule was a lot of paper, but interesting paper, said Dr. Larry Kaiser, dean of Temple University School of Medicine.
Kaiser had the honor of opening the capsule and presenting it at the demolition site.
You get a pretty good idea of what was going on at that time in 1930, Kaiser said. It was fascinating being able to sort of look back and see what they would have put in there.
The box held city newspapers, including issues of the Inquirer and Evening Public Ledger from June 1930, as well as Temple University Weekly, the schools student-run newspaper, from December 1925, the year university founder Russell Conwell died.

WORCESTER, MA - Victor R. Ambros, PhD, professor of molecular medicine at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, has been awarded a 2015 Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences for his co-discovery of a new world of genetic regulation by microRNAs, a class of tiny RNA molecules that inhibit translation or destabilize complementary mRNA targets. Honored with his long-time collaborator Gary Ruvkun, PhD, professor of genetics at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Dr. Ambros, the Silverman Chair in Natural Sciences and co-director of the RNA Therapeutics Institute, was one of six biomedical researchers honored, each of whom received a $3 million prize. In total, the Breakthrough Prizes awarded more than $36 million this year.
Established in 2013, the Breakthrough Prizes are bestowed in the fields of life sciences, physics and mathematics to celebrate scientists and generate excitement about the pursuit of science as a career. Founded by technology and Internet entrepreneurs Sergey Brin and Anne Wojcicki, Jack Ma and Cathy Zhang, Yuri and Julia Milner, and Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan, the prizes are funded by grants from the Brin Wojcicki Foundation; Mark Zuckerberg's fund at the Silicon Valley Community Foundation; the Jack Ma Foundation; and the Milner Foundation. Laureates of all prizes are chosen by selection committees which comprise prior recipients of the prizes.
"This year's life sciences laureates have made some spectacular discoveries, from a new kind of gene to a Parkinson's treatment that has improved the lives of many," said Wojcicki, co-founder and chief executive officer of the personal genomics company 23andMe. "It's energizing to be in the company of such brilliant and fertile minds."
The awards were presented at an exclusive gala co-hosted by Breakthrough Prize co-founders and Vanity Fair editor Graydon Carter at NASA's Ames Research Center. Hollywood personality Seth MacFarlane was master of ceremonies for the 2nd Annual Breakthrough Prize Ceremony, which also featured actors Kate Beckinsale, Benedict Cumberbatch, Cameron Diaz, Jon Hamm and Eddie Redmayne as presenters.
"The world faces many fundamental challenges today, and there are many amazing scientists, researchers and engineers helping us solve them," said Zuckerberg, founder and CEO of Facebook. "This year's Breakthrough Prize winners have made discoveries that will help cure disease and move the world forward. They deserve to be recognized as heroes."
The ceremony was produced and directed by Emmy Award-winning Don Mischer Productions and will be simulcast in the United States on Discovery Channel and Science Channel on Nov. 15 at 6 p.m. and televised globally the weekend of Nov. 22 on BBC World News.
