Rockets assistant Kelvin Sampson will briefly leave team to be w/ family after death of father

If I'm not mistaken, Craig Ackerman lost both of his parents last year as well. The hell is going on. Rest in peace.

 

Tough to lose both parents within 5 weeks.

 

I feel bad for him, losing both his parents in a short amount of time.

I'm sorry Coach.

 

so sad. condolences and peace to all the family and friends affected by these two losses. may they all be there for each other and may God bless them.

 

My condolences to him and his family

 

Very sorry coach.

Requiescat in pace.

 

Damn I bet other coaches like Im never coaching the Rockets ...

 

I very recently lost my father and it's very painful. I hope he is able to get some comfort being with family.

 

jesus both in 5 weeks?

hope hes okay.

 

RIP

They definitely don't make them like that anymore, nobody here in America stands up for ****. Look at all these kids getting bullied and killing themselves, we just lost a real dude right now...

Also does anyone now realize that Sampson does look kind of native, it's in the eyes right? He kind of has the same look as the Native American who would shed a tear from time to time during commercial beaks.

 

Condolences to Sampson and his family. RIP

 

Thoughts and Prayers are with him. To lose both parents in a span of 5 weeks is just horrible.

I hope he takes his time getting back. Basketball is just a game.

 

Damn RIP, I live here in NC had no idea he had family here.

 

damn. personal issues plaguing our staff this season. sucks that he lost both of his parents within a year.

stay strong coach

 

Many condolences to his family.
