Former NBA player Rasual Butler died early Wednesday morning in a single-car c
rash in Los Angeles, the Los Angeles County coroner’s office confirmed. Butle
r was 38.
According to TMZ Sports, who first reported the news, Butler was driving in th
e Studio City section of L.A. when he “lost control of his Range Rover around
2 AM, struck a parking meter and slammed into a wall.” The vehicle was “tra
veling at speeds two to three times higher than the limit,” L.A. police told
NBC Los Angeles. Police officials are still investigating the cause of the cra
sh. NBC reported that there was a woman with Butler at the time of his crash.
TMZ reported that it was his wife, former “American Idol” contestant and R&B
singer Leah LaBelle.
短翻：
前NBA球员Rasual Butler于美国时间周三凌晨在洛杉矶与他的妻子Leah LaBelle一同死于
车祸。
洛杉矶警方仍在调查事故原因，但是据信Butler夫妇在车子撞到路旁的收费计并撞到墙壁
前，行程速度是速限的两到三倍。
Rasual Butler 今年38岁，是2002年热火的2轮24顺位秀。在NBA一共打滚了13个球季，加
入过8支球队。生涯平均上场21.3分钟，可以得到7.5分2.4篮板。
心得：
Butler的巅峰应该是在05-09纽奥良黄蜂时期吧，跟CP3同队的时候有个10分3板、3分命中
率36%的数据。
虽然最后一年是在马刺，但是生涯后段让人有感的出赛纪录应该是是14-15的巫师队，当
时在场上是个有影响力的3D老将。
