Šestostruki NBA šampion je tužnu vest podelio na Tviteru.

- Srce mi je slomljeno, oprostio sam se od svog prvorođenog sina Antrona. Nas dvoje smo delili ljubav prema košarci i vodili smo nebrojene razgovore o igri. Antron je patio od hronične astme i da je nije imao zaista verujem da bi stigao do NBA lige. Ipak, nikada nije dopustio da ga to izneveri - Antron je ostao pozitivan i vredno radio, a ja sam toliko ponosan na čoveka koji je postao. Molim te, Bože, drži u mislima i molitvama njegovu mamu Karen i svu njegovu porodicu i prijatelje. Ljubazno srce i lepa duša otišli su prerano. Volim te, sine, smiri se dok se ponovo ne sretnemo - napisao je Skoti.

I’m heartbroken to share that yesterday, I said goodbye to my firstborn son Antron. The two of us shared a love for basketball and we had countless conversations about the game. (1/3) pic.twitter.com/Zt3wo8wpcg — Scottie Pippen (@ScottiePippen) April 19, 2021

Antron suffered from chronic asthma and if he hadn’t had it, I truly believe he would've made it to the NBA. He never let that get him down, though—Antron stayed positive and worked hard, and I am so proud of the man that he became.

Please keep his mom, Karen, and all of his family and friends in your thoughts and prayers. A kind heart and beautiful soul gone way too soon. I love you, son, rest easy until we meet again. ?? (3/3) pic.twitter.com/eYyQ6pcdtx — Scottie Pippen (@ScottiePippen) April 19, 2021

Uzrok smrti i dalje nije poznat javnosti.

Antron je bio najstariji Pipenov sin, iz prvog braka sa Karen Mekolum.
