The two of us shared a love for basketball and we had countless conversations about the game, Scottie Pippen, via Instagram.

Antron suffered from chronic asthma and if he hadn't had it, I truly believe he would've made it to the NBA.

He never let that get him down, though … , Scottie Pippen, via Instagram.
