Here we go again, that's what most of you are probably thinking. Latrell Sprewell is yet again being talked about still after retiring from the NBA. He played for the Golden State Warriors, New York Knicks, and Minnesota Timberwolves. He played for 13 years and averaged around 18.3 points per game.
"They're not doing anything for me. I'm at risk. I have a lot of risk here. I got my family to feed. Anything could happen." That is what he famously said after turning down an offer of three years, $21 million contract with the Timberwolves. He should have taken it considering he was then not offered a contract from any other team in the league. He was old and washed up but could still play at a high enough level. No one even came close to even matching the offer the Timberwolves did so he was left without anything. Now he should worry about having food on the table. Now he is at risk.
This isn't the only stupid thing he is done in his basketball career. During a game he got so fed up with one of his coaches that he actually wrapped his hands around his neck and choked him. He is absolutely crazy! Absolutely! The smart thing to do would not have anything to do with the people he was hanging around with just like Pac Man Jones. They have maturity levels of 13 year olds and do not even know how to act right in front of a camera when the whole world is watching. They wonder why everyone is picking on them?
The latest report is that a US marshal armed with an order from the judge to sease the yacht, The Milwaukee's Best, on the shore of Lake Michigan. LSF Marine Holdings, a company ran by Sprewell, has failed to make monthly payments of $10,322 in a timely fashion. He also hasn't maintained the necessary insurance according to a report.
We are not sure if he just decided not to make the payments or if he did not have enough money to make the payments. Either way he has some major problems. Paying for this sure does take a lot of money away from buying food for his family, especially if he didn't have any money in the first place. I guess we'll never know.
If ESPN and all the others sports companies would just ignore this stuff then we woul out to hear about his name again. Then again, I am writing an article about him. I guess I might need to stop now.
