Dude was a McDonald’s All-American out of high school. Five star across all recruiting sites.
Crushed it in his 2nd year at Purdue (like 18 ppg, 12 RPG. 52% FG, 45% 3pt, All American, etc.).
Drafted first round. Never really played in NBA over 4-5 years. Gained a MASSIVE amount of weight. Left ball altogether.
Then just passed away at age 25 of natural causes.
I mean, holy crap. He had to have had some serious things going on in his life and/or mentally, right?
I dunno. Just a crazy sad story and sucks to see any kid pass away at that age.
