Had the pleasure of meeting him on the court at the PMAC a few years back when LSU cut down the nets after clinching the SEC Championship. He was very kind to everyone who wanted to talk to him and took pictures with everyone who asked, including myself.

RIP. Mr Sims

RIP Wayne. Loved the way he played ball, and his free throw line jumper was icy

Never knew him personally, but from his demeanor, he was a class individual. The kind of guy everyone should appreciate.
Prayers for his family and friends.
Sad day for basketball fans as well.

He had that smooth jumper from the corner of the lane. Always nothing but nylon.

Prayers and condolences to his family. I played against him in HS when he was a star at Deridder High, he was a man amongst boys back then, one of La best. Rest easy Big man.
