Delonte West Impressed At Big 3 Tryouts And Earns Spot In Combine
After Delonte West was spotted on the streets of Dallas again in September 2020, holding a sign asking people for money, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban went actively looking for West, found him and picked him up at a Dallas gas station in an attempt to help his former player get his life back on track.
Cuban took West to a local hotel and offered to pay for his treatment, something West agreed to, as went to rehab in Florida, and eventually appeared to be back to his normal self.
Unfortunately though, West then was arrested again in Boynton Beach, Florida, this past October. He appeared to be banging on the doors of the police station while yelling profanity with an open can of beer and a bottle of vodka.
Ever since this incident, it has gotten quite around the former NBA player, which is a good sign, until a couple of weeks ago when the 38-year-old was spotted working on a comeback, training daily at the Pat The Roc Basketball Academy in Gaithersburg, Maryland.
West’s goal is to become a player in the Big 3 league. The 3-on-3 league currently is in the midst of their open tryouts, and when they stopped inWashington D.C. yesterday, West came out and played well enough to earn a spot in the combine.

The former NBA star even drained a couple of four-point shots with ease.
