Damn. Dead at 43 from Leukemia.

Nothing but a role-player at best in the NBA, but I'll always remember Dan Patrick purposefully mispronouncing his name during the glory days of sportcenter.

Dwayne.......Shhhhhhnshuss.

I always think of Ahmad Rashad mispronouncing his name on The Inside Stuff.

Can I use my original 'sex appeal' joke in this thread?

I would have to go back and find it but there was an article written when he was at Florida about what an ass he was at the time. A kid came up to him and asked him with wide eyes and asked "how is the weather up there?" Dwayne looked down,spit and said "Its raining". Anyone else remember that?

Yep.

Although it wasn't a kid. It was a student at Florida.

Thanks. I thought I was the only one who caught that at the time. So if it was a college student THAT IS FUCKING OUTSTANDING. He is forgiven. Give Em hell cockatiel head. RIP.

Never got to see him play much in college but has some pretty impressive stats. Total bust in the
NBA. Sorry to hear this, especially since he had kids. Definitely a memorable player from back in
the day. Top 5 haircut of all time. All business in the front.... party in the back!

First Dwayne, now Matt Geiger being tossed (relocated) from a Rays game. What's happening to the big men of our youth?

Its amazing how many of us that story resonated with because that's the first thing I thought of as well.
