Former Seton Hall Star Luther Wright Hit Rock Bottom, Then Turned His Life Around

Seton Hall's Luther Wright, once a promising young basketball star, wasn't ready for life in the NBA. A tortured childhood led to a drug addiction. But when he listened to a surgeon cutting off two of his toes, it inspired dramatic changes in his life.

Nice story. I'm so happy he turned his life around. I'm also happy that it looks like he's dropped a lot of weight recently.

I see him in the media area before every game. He's pleasant to everyone but shy. No doubt in my mind his life has scarred him forever. Hope he has as much happiness as possible moving forward.

I think we all love to see him at the games and wish him continued happiness.

The ping story is as vivid a way of describing the decendence into substance abuse as I can remember. I hope our Herb sees Lu's recovery and refuses to give up on his life.

Wow, I guess Marijuana isn't a drug to him.........., or if it is, then he just ruined his 12 years of sobriety for his Twitter fans. Sad.

The cialis is more dangerous than the marijuana. If Luther needs a little weed to get through his day let's just leave him alone about it. Don't know why he's putting it out there but social media makes people do and say stupid stuff.

Let's all just pray the Luther is OK. Is there anyone who can reach out to him?

what is he thinking with that on his twitter?

Not a great look there Lu...not sure what he's thinking putting that on Twitter

Luther may be a nice guy and no danger to society. He is, however, typical of drug users. He's a BS artist when it comes to substance abuse. He says one thing and does another. Moreover, he seems proud of it.

Give him credit for his PR savvy. He has the press eating out of his hand.

He can thank God that his NBA contract was spread out over 25 years. Otherwise, who knows where he'd be.

If he had real friends, they'd tell him to stop because pot will destroy your body and your mind.

Bipolar personalities do not think about actions and long term consequences like all of us. His wife should be hitting him over the head with a shoe , and then he'll stop posting stupid stuff like that.

I watched news clip this morning and was happy for Luther. After seeing the twitter this evening, it is apparent he needs more help. Hope he gets it and gets back in track.
