A lot of people believed in him and thought he could succeed with a better support system but couldn't take advantage of the incredible opportunity that had been provided to him despite not even necessarily deserving it
Can only image the things that have happened behind the scenes and all the stuff we haven't heard about especially considering they're saying now that he had a history of abusing her
Rockets tried to help but probably enabled him at times and let him get away with too much
As far as on the court goes....I was really hoping he embraced the 6th man role and lead the second unit with Amen Thompson while playing off ball and getting more catch and shoot opportunities...thought he really might have a shot at 6th man of they year if he bought it
Oh well, just have to move on and make the best of a fucked up situation

Its always fucked up to see someone fuck up an oppurtunity where they could have set up their family with generational wealth.
That said, he just became an example of what not to do for the kids coming up after him

His Dad sounds like a psycho if you've ever read about him
Got charged with the murder of a 14 year old girl but only served like 4 years due to it being reduced to manslaughter
Yeah I vaguely remember I think it was because it came out the girl asked to see his gun or something and it went off
I THINK
Luckily he was good at basketball or else he’d be in the streets. Dude needs help.
I mean the mental/off the court stuff is why KPJ slid in the draft
I remember reading into him a lot because I wanted Miami to draft him

Don't forget Matisse Thybulle. Plus Jabari Walker could develop into a nice player. Rookie Kris Murray is going to be one of the more NBA-ready rookies.
Even the roster they had last year wasn't that bad. The coaching could be a big issue with this team.
I think the people in his life failed him. He's still responsible for his own actions but imagine how people close to him knew about the red flags and ignored them or didn't give it the attention it deserved cause he was good at basketball.
I see this far too often. Kid is pretty decent and the coaches just coddle him cause he helps give them the best chance to make the playoffs

Fam im not saying you wrong.
Im just saying people and the system fails a ton of people thats not good at basketball too.
Its a ton of mfers in jail that acted out in violence or stole someshit due to unresolved childhood trauma.
As a society we not good at dealing with this shit wether we rich or poor or talented or not.
Absolutely
In this particular instance, he had the access to the help vs the people that didn't you reference.
More than anything once he got on, that's when it should've really been encouraged cause he had even more access
Kawhi finding out he has to play more than 60 games this year
