    He was one of the last cuts for the sonics that preseason. He was in the inaugural season of the NBDL but warmed the bench, then complained about it and was eventually released.

    He has aslo been fighting alcoholism along the way and I think he was in rehab for that.

    Last I heard was that he went to the Nuggets open tryouts this off-season but didn't make it.

    Yeah, I heard he's had a lot of difficulty with his alcoholism. He was cited awhile back for something like a .32, it's a wonder this dude is still breathing. He was a great talent in college, just needs to straighten out his life if he's going to ever get another shot at the big leagues.
