Such an unfortunate guy. I loved watching him. There existed a 2002 documentary named Sidelines was televised at NBA TV. That 2002 LA Clippers team was so interesting.

I was really pulling for him when he tried to make a comeback for the Celtics. He had lost his athleticism at that point, and he was never a reliable outside shooter. When he was in his athletic prime, he was awesome to watch.

Unfortunate to hear. Seems quite a few athletes get caught out in these bad investments.
