Boston Celtics Star Isaiah Thomas Plays Through Tears After Sister's Death

NBA star Isaiah Thomas played in Sunday's playoff game against the Chicago Bulls, just one day after the sudden death of his younger sister. The Boston Celtics guard wept on the sidelines prior to the team's first playoff game, looking down at his shoes on which he'd written "RIP Lil Sis," "Chyna" and "I love you." Chyna Thomas was killed in a single vehicle crash in Washington State when her car veered off a road and traveled 50 feet before slamming into a metal pole. #InsideEdition

That wasn't Charles place to speak on the situation PERIOD.

[denisseordonez]

Charles if it makes you feel uncomfortable than don’t watch and he did really good in the game plus he is a brave person for playing that day you don’t know how he feels he lost his sister so let him do what he needs to.

[kirankaur]

Let’s forget Charles and honour his sister and how strong he was to still play

[nesonajames]

Charles has no heart it makes u uncomfortable then don't watch him cry

[kelseyfournier]

Charles Barkley needs to shut up, he probably has no idea what Thomas is going through, basicly what hBarkley was saying about Thomas was, "He needs to grow up and be a man."

[martezevans]

Charles that was very disrespectful have a heart!

[theyyyloveesky]

If he "wasn't ready to play " he wouldnt have scored 32 points

[Leanne-jmgc]

He lost his little sister, give him a break.

WHO CARES IF YOUR UNCOMFORTABLE???? CHARLIE YOU DONT KNOW WHAT HES GOING THROUGH THATS DISRESPECTFUL

[Sumi]

This was 2 years ago? Wow times flies 😪

[kaileemae]

he took the time to play and no let his team down when she should of been home with his family! it hasnt even been 24 hours at that time. he had every right to cry at thag moment. he wasnt even balling dramatically. he was just shedding a tear. i get thats his opinion but its a day after, he cant just hold it in and pretend everything is okay.

[cat-wpfe]

‘He’s not in shape to play’ when he literally just scored 33 points for the game . But buddy

Stop with the Charles comments








I’m tired of liking them.

I lost my big sister 3 years ago, it is the absolutely worst pain you can possibly imagine. To go from having a sister one day to not having one the next is like stepping into a living breathing nightmare. It turns your world around in ways you didn’t think was possible. It changes you and your world, it alters something so deep in your core that it affects your very identity. 3 years and I still don’t think I’ve come close to recovering from it yet. I still miss her everyday, not a day goes by that I don’t wish she was still here. I feel for this guy, I know what he’s going through. My prayers go out to him. I hope he has a good support system, he’s going to need it. He has a tough road ahead of him.

I lost my brother, I know his feeling, your life will never be the same.
Edit: thank you for all your nice words. God bless you all.

I can relate to Isaiah Thomas because If i ever lost my sister, I'm going all out with my blood, sweat and tears 👌🏀 My sister is my blood and im not going to take advantage of her 💯 I love her till death 💪

[villavelli]

The man took a serious loss but was still there for his team and played a good game. I don’t see where he was unfit to play.🤷🏽‍♂️ Maybe he needed to play to push through the pain.🙏🏿✊🏾

[oliviaharmon]

Just show some respect. God the girl just died and Charles is going to comment publicly like that. I wish that we all had respect for each other 💙😰 .... R.I.P. chyna. May you be loved ❤️

[legowarfare]

Feel bad for him because of his lost and the whole teams lost last night

[shellymese]

Wanna know what’s uncomfortable? Knowing that you’ll never see the person you love most ever again and having to play through the pain. No one cares that you don’t want to see him cry
