Can't even imagine what's going through Tremont's head. If I lost my dad, I would fricking lose it, no matter how old I am. And how young Tremont is and JUST getting to live out his dreams in the NBA, this is just tragic news. RIP Ed and prayers to the Waters family. This is absolutely tragic.

My father was my best friend. I lost him to cancer a few years back and it still hurts to this very second. I was lucky enough to say my goodbyes, tell him I love him and hold his hand when he passed. I can't imagine having to lose Pop the way Tremont lost his dad. Prayers of strength and peace to him and his family.

This is terrible. Lost my mother suddenly at Tremont's age. It's hard on a kid. Thoughts and prayers.

Very hard loss. May he RIP and may Tremont find peace in that his dad got a chance to see him sign up professionally.

Can you imagine how proud his Dad was to be around to see Tremont get selected in the NBA draft. It had to be as special as any moment in his life. It's sad he will not be around to see him succeed on the next level but I can guarantee you he will be smiling down watching his little boy grow into an NBA star. Condolences to the family.
