Looked him up. Guard, 6’6”
Went from USC to UNLV to Iowa State.
Arrested on visit number 9 by Ames Iowa cops to his apartment a year and a half ago.
I think he is just more urban garbage. Los Angeles area.
He evidently did not consider that a home invasion at 3AM in Texas might have a possible chance of being more dangerous than LA.

The NBA needs to have a school to teach common decency.

Then there is more of a chance the victim gets in trouble. Unlikely though.

And why would he be breaking into an acquaintances apartment? Dollars to donuts it was a girl's apartment he thought he was breaking into.

I’m guessing that those who knew him can look back on his life and see how it all came to this.

I would hope the guy’ll get no-billed, assuming the facts are as described.

Not just the front door but the bedroom door too. I wonder if he was under the influence of something.
