CDixonDesign Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Strange, but he probably took a break, as mentioned in the story, and just didn't bother to tell any member of his family. He'll pop up somewhere, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CDixonDesign Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 It was a shame when I just got home yesterday, to hear that his body has been found. RIP Lorenzon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 I'm in favor of the Sixers signing Lorenzen Wright's lifeless body to fill the void left by the departure of Samuel Dalembert. He will average just about the same number of points per game, and at least fill up space in the lane.

dfwabel Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 So now there are four members of the 1996 Clippers who are now dead (Wright, Dele, Duckworth, and Sealy) with another one Rodney Rogers a quadriplegia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted July 31, 2010 Author Share Posted July 31, 2010 This has taken a tragic turnIt looks like Lorezen Wright made a 911 call and the dispatcher did nothing. Maybe it would have not saved him, but this will make catching the killers harder. http://news.lalate.com/2010/07/29/lorenzen-wright-911-tape-murder-clues/ www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will probably lead to a lawsuit of some sort too, don't you think? Since Wright is dead, he now has no chance of another NBA check...and his family can't dig in his pocket anymore.
