I actually grew up in LA with Darius played with him and against him with delon wright as my PG at st Andrew’s park from age 7-13 then I moved to Atlanta and played at the same high school as Drew he was on varsity I was on JV when I seen the lakers pick both of them on the same year I was happy af but at the same time I felt like I should have went harder RIP to my boy D-Mo it’s crazy how life works sometime it’s times I wanted to trade places with him.
Damn I remember playing with him in 2k and wanting him to be the next great lakers pg, he was a 6'4 pass first pg and looked like he could play defense. I really wanted him to be a star, I was 17 and delusional, him and kendall marshall
Remember Kendall Marshall shooting absolute bombs from 3? He had a few near-logo shots during his short stint with the Lakers.
He also had several 15+ assist games. I honestly thought he was going to be a better version of Brevin Knight.
That 2013-14 team was trash but damn they could shoot from 3!
Ranked 3rd in the league (38.1%) from 3!

Bro same exact boat as you. I also thought Ebanks could’ve been great if given the opportunity but when he actually got playing time he was terrible lol.
Jordan Hill not much info after NBA career ended.
Ryan Kelly still plays in Japan for the Shibuya Sun Rockers where he has played since 2018 he averaged 12pts 5reb this year for them.
Robert Sacre retired in 2019 and also played in Japan with Ryan Kelly on the Shibuya Sun Rockers. He has been the Assistant GM for the Fraser Valley Bandits in Canadian Basketball League since 2021.
What?! Man that's horrible. I really believed in him. Was a good prospect for us and gave it his all in that playoff run we had where Kobe got injured against the Spurs. RIP❤️ Once a Laker always a Laker.
I remember watching him and Andre Goudelock turn up a few times against the spurs in the playoffs
Man Goudelock Mini Mamba and Darius you really unlocked a memory of those 2 guys

Daaaaaaamn I forgot about Mini Mamba
I remember how badly I wanted Goudelock to be that guy lol
The simpler times

damn that team.
Still remember him hitting a dagger from near the logo against the Jazz. My first game at Staples. https://youtu.be/3Pj5E7pEWcM?si=BJJNZfgbP4CwhgAG
Kendall Marshall was badass in 2k damn forgot about him
he had the frame and talent for it
Bro same exact boat as you. I also thought Ebanks could’ve been great if given the opportunity but when he actually got playing time he was terrible lol.
the next trevor ariza lol
I was like 12 and delusional after he left Michigan. I over inflated the importance of his passing.
I remember there being an article where Darius Morris has good stats whenever he gets minutes.
Damn did not expect to see this when I hopped on
Redondo Beach raised. Adams Middle School. RIP Darius
My son went to adams with him. Darius was an incredible athlete, he was by far the best at any sport and a nice and cool class mate.
Damn wtf?! Any clues or ideas on how he passed?
When details aren’t shared this early it’s usually a drug overdose or laced with something bad
Damn, I know his dad n brother are facing prison time so that probably didn’t help his mental state
No details have been announced other than he was found dead in LA area on Thursday and family announced death today.
died at age 34. that's my age. dang life is too short
33
RIP 🙏 Gone way too young
I hope he found peace
Damn. That's so sad to read. 33 is too young. What's the cause of death?
No details have been announced other than he was found dead in LA area on Thursday and family announced death today.
I’ve always wondered what these players are up these days! him, Jordan Hill, Ryan Kelly, Robert Sacre, etc. Very sad to hear.

Anybody know what happened

Wtf ooof RIP
My fav memory of him is when he hit a NASTY random half court buzzer beater on the Clips RIP https://youtu.be/_IBYNCM0PVA?si=Vs8hovFt7IqpAtv3
Fuck! Dude balled out when he was on the court. Sad.
He went to my old high school. I remember watching his career because of that. Very sad.
Go wildcats
RIP Darius <3
Damn he was a hard worker on a really bad team. RIP
Damn for real? I rooted for him to find a place in the league. He had flashes of potential
RIP
Damn.. Rest in Peace 🙏
That’s sad to hear. Still remember Dantoni started him in the 12-13 season as our defensive stopper
I remember I thought this was our PG of the future after 2 decent preseason games as a rookie.
This is so sad, 34 years old. 13 year old me definitely thought him and mini mamba were the backcourt of the future. Rest in peace Darius.
RIP prayers to the family 🙏
Damn that’s my age. R.I.P. to this man
WHAT NO.. i really am still attached to this era of lakers this is sad to hear man rip
Rest in Peace
rip man bro was way too young
RIP 🙏
RIP man. So young, i remember when we drafted him
Ah man, I remember him on those early 2010 teams.
I remember thinking he was gonna be the PG of the future for the Lakers. Condolences to his family.
RIP ! No way!
What?! Man that's horrible. I really believed in him. Was a good prospect for us and gave it his all in that playoff run we had where Kobe got injured against the Spurs. RIP❤️ Once a Laker always a Laker.
Damn, he died?? From what?
He was found dead on Thursday in LA. Family released news that he died today, but hasn't said cause yet.
33 way too fucking young man rip. Prayers up for the family and loved ones
Rip
I was so shocked hearing this. I always rooted for him to have a good game.
RIP. That's sad so young
Shit. RIP. I just met him few months ago at 24 hour fitness. He was so friendly.
Damn I hope no one farms likes for my death
I could care less about upvotes or down votes. Its Lakers news and it hadn't been posted yet.
Implying he unalived or od’d himself is slanderous. That is not honor. It is not dignity.
I never implied either I said he was found dead and family released news, but they didn't say cause of death.
Doesn’t mean it’s right
Media shouldn't have released it either then. His parents released it to media so they wanted public to know.
It’s distasteful and gross. I get, we’re different. You do you boo-boo go farm them likes
