He was pretty good, he didnt dominate but it never really looked like his heart was into playing in there. He kinda did his own workouts most of the time and played to work on certain things and to get a sweat. Never came across as the dude that was there to drop 50.

When he was 10, his father died of pneumonia, Page said. His mother died of complications from H.I.V., he said, as he finished high school. He knows of two uncles who were shot and killed. His grandmother, the heart of the extended family, died when Page was playing basketball in Italy.

A few weeks ago, Page's name resurfaced in news accounts when a 19-year-old cousin of his named Jerome Stroud was sentenced to 91 years in prison for his role in the killing of two teenagers in 2004. Court documents submitted by the prosecution said that Stroud's motive was to retaliate for the shooting of Page, The Washington Post reported.

Dude had one turbulent ass life. That article was written in 2006 but it seemed like he was doing better.

Victor Page, Shawn Respert, Scotty Thurman, Sc00nie Penn and Jimmy King it blows my mind that these players didn't have some type of NBA career at all.

Someone needs to get at VP and get his story I'm dying to know how shyt got this bad for dude.
