Interesting Luther Wright video

Video unavailable.
 
Jazz pay him $153,000 a year up until 2021.

Certainly one of the strangest Jazz stories. I was so excited when he was drafted. I don't begrudge Luther anything, and wish him well. PJ was selfish and deceitful. He used a poor kid and lied to the Jazz to advance his own career.

Please remind me how PJ plays into this. The parts of the story I can recall certainly are strange. Amazing if true that the Jazz have been paying him so much money for so long. I wish the best for Luther.
 
PJ was Luther's coach at Seton Hall, as I recall the Laydens or Dave Friedman thought they were friends with PJ. He told them Luther was fine everything was okay. Later it was discovered Luther had exhibited symptoms and episodes while at Seton Hall. PJ lied to the Jazz, and possibly others to get his "Recruit" into the NBA. PJ jumped to the NBA himself the next year.
 
I feel bad for making Luther Wright jokes all these years. Glad to hear he is getting his life back on track.

I apologize in advance for any future Luther Wright jokes that may slip out.
 
To this day I can't drive by that I-80 rest stop where he had the breakdown without thinking of Luther. Sad for the guy. Very telling and tragic that in the video he admits that he quit working as soon as he signed his contract.
 
It disgusts me knowing that there are so many child molesters. It's sickening to think about the pain and suffering the victims get from their experiences. No matter how long ago it happened, it still ****s them up. Must be awful.

I just found out Wright lived in South Jordan when he lived out here. That's cool (that's where I live.)

I kinda get a Mike Tyson vibe when he talks.
