Los Angeles Clippers forward Kobe Brown is in mourning after receiving devastating news about a former Missouri Tigers teammate who died in a late-night car accident. According to Columbia police, the crash occurred just outside the Mizzou campus and claimed the life of a former player who had remained close to Brown after college. Brown took to Instagram early Saturday morning to post a black-and-white photo with the caption, “We were brothers… I don’t even have the words.” The identity of the player has not been publicly confirmed out of respect for the family, but Missouri athletics released a brief statement offering condolences and calling the player “a beloved teammate and leader.” Brown, who was known for his leadership during his years at Missouri, reportedly broke down upon hearing the news. He has canceled all media availability with the Clippers for the week. Sources close to the situation say he’s considering flying back to Missouri to attend the funeral. The basketball world has rallied around Brown, with former coaches and teammates sending public messages of support. For now, the Mizzou community is united in grief, honoring a life lost too soon and standing behind one of their own.
