by If you are a fan of the Miami Heat, you might be wondering where Rafer Alston disappeared to. Shortly after losing his starting job to Carlos Arroyo, Alston left the team without much explanation.
Well, today it has come out that Alston left the team to go see his twin sister, Racine, who allegedly tried to commit suicide.
Alston said, “I’ve never been a quitter and I still want to go back and tell them face to face. But after I had a little time to think about the fact that I wouldn’t be playing any more, I felt the best thing was for me to be with my loved one.”
Conveniently (cough, cough), Alston has said that his sister’s attempted suicide came a few days BEFORE he was taken out of the starting lineup. Of course, in reality, Alston did not want people to find out the truth: That he was the one who went to commit suicide because of his new role as a bench player.
Is it just me, or did Rafer Alston never get mentioned as a twin before this story came out?
