His body was found at a residence in the Schotsche Kloof area of Cape Town around 11am on Saturday.
Details regarding his death are still under wraps.
Juanito Adams, his father, informed the South African news network eNCA on Sunday that the family is awaiting autopsy results.
He noted: “As you all know, this was an unexpected loss. The family is struggling to come to terms with it.
“The path ahead will not be easy. People say it will get easier, but that’s not the reality. You just learn to live with it.”
Adams participated in all three of South Africa’s group matches during this year’s World Cup.
The national team achieved its best result ever in the tournament, advancing to the knockout stages.
Adams did not play in the round of 32 game against Canada on June 28, where they faced a 1-0 defeat.
