Lorenzen Wright missing. Update: Now found dead

I will pay respect when they determine it wasn't suicide, otherwise it was downright selfish.

Nobody cares what you believe. Stop acting like a dick just to try and grab the attention of some dudes on the internet.

My condolences to his family and friends. Hope it wasn't a suicide.

So Wright was using his success to help out family members and prop up the careers of quasi-siblings down on their luck. He was happy to let fortunate friends share some scraps of his success. He let a boyhood friend serve as a business manager. Funny, no one wanted to make a half-hour HBO series about this arrangement.

On Wednesday, the Memphis Commercial Appeal reported that law enforcement officials found Wright's body in a wooded area in Memphis. Wright, who played his final NBA game in 2009, was last seen at a Memphis barbershop on July 19.

For whatever sordid details might or might not emerge in the coming days, it bears remembering that this was a guy saddled with pressures beyond basketball who went to great lengths looking after his family and friends.

Read the full story. Wright seemed to be a very good person.

Ah man I just heard about the news.

R.I.P Lorenzen Wright.

Reports coming in that he was shot a dozen times. That can't be suicide right? He'd be dead before shooting himself 12 times.
