    Sad. Eddie has much talent, and was even given a second chance on his NBA career (and multi-million dollars) by the Wolves after his troubles in Houston. There are certain trouble in life even talent and wealth cannot solve.

    A sad end to a troubled man. Right now on the local Minneapolis news they are speculating that this might've been intentional.

    Shocking and very sad, especially if it was intentional. :( Seems like not so long ago with the 3 for 1 trade... then everyone thinking how he was a disappointment to the team, but what he was doing to himself was the most tragic.

    I used to live in this area as well, I've gone over those tracks plenty of times, next time I do it will feel a little different for sure knowing that's where Eddie passed away.

    Rest In Peace EG
