Boston Celtics star Isaiah Thomas' sister, Chyna, died at the age of 22 in a one-car accident on Washington's Interstate 5 on Saturday morning, according to Adam Himmelsbach of the Boston Globe.

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 and vaulting into a pole.

The Washington State Patrol reports that Chyna Thomas was not wearing her seat belt at the time of the accident.
