Boston Celtics star Isaiah Thomas' sister, Chyna Thomas, died in a one-car accident in Federal Way, Washington's Interstate 5 on Saturday morning, according to Adam Himmelsbach of the Boston Globe.

The news was first reported by KIRO 7 in Washington state.

A witness said the car was traveling normally at first before it started drifting onto the left shoulder. The car went about 50 feet off the roadway before colliding with a Jersey barrier.

Chyna Thomas was reportedly not wearing her seatbelt.

The Celtics will play the Chicago Bulls on Sunday in Boston.
