After Tyler Honeycutt was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound Saturday morning following a police standoff in Los Angeles, it shook up his former basketball peers.
"I can't believe I'm hearing this," tweeted Kings guard Garrett Temple, who played with him on the Reno Bighorns, the Kings development team.
The 27-year-old's NBA career was brief.
Sacramento selected Honeycutt in the second round (35th overall) in the 2011 NBA draft after two seasons at UCLA. He was one of three draft picks that included first-rounder Jimmer Fredette and the last pick in the draft, future All-Star Isaiah Thomas.
