Sheesh.

Add another to the list of talented athletes that burned out because they are headcases.

Honeycutt now joins jj hickson and Kellen Winslow jr in this fascinating club.

He has been playing in Euro the past few years. Saw some people mentioning he may get another shot at an NBA roster this year.

Sad.

Bunch, I posted this on the Pels board too. I know there were talks to bring him in. Sad. Prayers to his family.

GTFO with that shite.

Sadly, he was right about that age when erratic behavior like this can indicate psychiatric issues.

Old update
quote:

UPDATE: SWAT entered the residence & located an unresponsive male. LAFD responded & pronounced the male dead at scene. Investigators from our Force Investigation Division are at scene conducting a thorough investigation and we will provide more details as they become available


Not clear if he took his own life or if the officers return fire killed him

Comments on Twitter suggest his mom called the police due to erratic behavior

27 is a little late for that to start developing. It's late teens/early 20s.
