‘Mark Cuban got him a hotel’: Mavericks owner tracked down Delonte West and will pay for his rehab

One of the most infamous meth-heads in the NBA recently, Delonte West is broke and was found loitering around a gas station before Mark Cuban picked him up.

Diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2008, Delonte West has been the subject of some really nasty rumors and allegations over the years. These include him having an affair with LeBron James’s mother Gloria, one that he has vehemently denied.

West was arrested for traffic and gun violations in September 2009.

Over the past few years, West has been spotted at Houston, in the Washington DC area and now downtown Dallas. Only a few days back, news began circulating that the former Celtics and Cavs guard is bankrupt.

It was reported that Doc Rivers was interested in helping him get his life back on track.

West played for 7 years in the NBA, averaging 9.7 points per game during his time with the Cavs, Sonics, Celtics and Mavericks. The 6’4″ guard was part of the consensus best college backcourt in the country along with Jameer Nelson in his junior year.
