Delonte West – Substance Issues

Sadly, not all NBA stories have a happy ending. From 2005 to 2012, point guard Delonte West played for everyone from the Boston Celtics to the Cleveland Cavaliers. However, in 2016, just a year after quitting professional basketball, a photo emerged of West on the street, barefoot and wearing a hospital gown.
A few years later, more videos emerged of West on the street, receiving horrible treatment. Thankfully, this wasn’t the end of his story. At the end of 2020, none other than Shark Tank investor Mark Cuban spotted West on the street, picked him up, and paid for him to attend rehab. West now remains clean, sober, and working in a rehabilitation facility in Florida. Congrats!
