Missing former NBA Player Lorenzen Wright found dead In Memphis
Memphis police have found the body of a man eyewitnesses say is Lorenzen Wright, who has been missing since July 17th. Sources say he had been shot and it may have been self-inflected. Despite earning $55 million throughout his NBA career, Wright ran into financial difficulties that lead to his house being foreclosed last May.
R.I.P. Lorenzen Wright
The 34-year-old Wright was last seen July 18 when he was expected to fly out of town. His family filed a missing person report July 22.
Wright played 13 years in the NBA with five different teams: the Los Angeles Clippers, Atlanta Hawks, Memphis Grizzlies, Sacramento Kings and most recently the Cleveland Cavaliers with 17 games in the 2008-09 season. Wright left the University of Memphis early for the NBA, and the Clippers made him a lottery pick with the No. 7 selection overall.
