soniqstylz Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Manute Bol died today from a skin disease he got helping his home country of Sudan. He played 10 years in the NBA, and went broke spending all his money building schools and trying to bring peace there.

Darksoft Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 That's why I've always found that "NBA Cares" to be BULL****... They pass out some turkeys or go to a foreign country and take a couple of pictures and that's it. When real work is being done they don't even report it, one finds out when the person dies.

DirtyLarry Veteran Posted June 20, 2010 Veteran Share Posted June 20, 2010 RIP Real Sports With Bryant Gumble on HBO did a really good (and sad) piece about Bol a few years back. Really was quite sad to see how most of the NBA just truly abandoned him.
