[CHACHITOOOOOOOO]

respect for him not putting shame on this family and instead trying to take attention off them

[JayWilliams-bxwo]

He a real one I hope he gets blessed financially and emotionally

[Zyroclips-dg]

“If they can do it you can do it” words of a legend 😢🥺

[BigE]

This is so crushing, I heard he had also dealt with drug addiction and that’s what also added to him being homeless…. I hope he’s doing better now days and has a roof over his head now 🙏🏽

[BraxtonHarner]

I know this kid made his day his mood just lit up-when he said he played with LeBron, remembered all the good memories he had when he was playing.

[HustleBornAG]

Met him outside a 7/11 in Virginia by Richmond highway. He the most humble dude for the situation he’s in man. May god watch over this man and get him back on his feet

[jjthevrgamer]

He lost everything but his hope and kindness hope someone blesses this man

[REGIONALMusic-qz]

Please help this guy 🥺
He deserves extra love and money for this

[bradgphoto]

I’ve followed his story for a while now. Makes me cry. When he had money he took care of his loved ones and when he didn’t have money they turned their backs.

From the lowest to the highest, back to the lowest, this man has a story, and that story is life, it’s so human and raw, big ups to you, I hope you’re victorious in your fight and struggle, and I hope the pain is eased when the time is right, God be with you

[ijm_-ss]

The best thing about the worst time in your life is you get to see the TRUE colors of everyone. God be with you bro.

[maricamendez]

Not anything defines who you are but, the heart, keep it real.❤

[sinkaido]

“If they can do it” is so sad to me. U did it, Delonte. U made the NBA and raised ur fam up even though they didnt do the same. Hope someone out there tells him sumn like that, and helps him out if he still in the rough

[haha-vnxx]

Thats one of the scariest thing working hard to make your dream come true and then lose it all

[sablenx]

I feel him, it's hard to be not kind, especially to family, I've always had my family as my comfort zone, until a point I realize I was actually lose myself. Now I started my own family and make sure everyone is loved ❤

[Sweetypiesugarlove]

Perfect example of why you have to stay humble and try not to judge people. You could be “on top of the world” one minute and the next down and out. Hope he finds his way back to a better place. God Bless him

[nonjebusiness]

GOD BLESS DELONTE, HOPE THINGS ARE GOING BETTER

[TopRopeTalkHost]

Delonte west has to be the saddest and happiest story in the NBA history, giving money to his family and leaving everything for them, beautiful 😢❤

[tashfiqmannan]

Get this man on a mentorship program training young kids, he’s got talent and a heart of gold, there’s a lot he can still do for the community!

For those who don’t know this is Delonte West. He played with Lebron on the Cavaliers and then played for the Dallas Maverick for a while. The owner of the Dallas Mavericks Mark Cuban looked for Delonte after hearing what was going on with him. Mark picked Delonte up in his own car and brought him to a Hotel. Mark told Delonte that he’d like to pay and send him to rehab which Delonte agreed to.

Mark says that he sent him to rehab in Florida and was getting awesome progress photo’s of Delonte. Mark said yes, we finally got him on the right track. But when Delonte got out of rehab he just disappeared and went back to his old ways.

Mark Cuban went after Delonte again and put him back in rehab in another effort to save him. But Delonte disappeared again and went back to his old ways. Unfortunately Delonte sufferers from bipolar disorder. Mark said, I really tried helping him but there is only so much you could do mental illness is real 😕
