Former NBA player Kyle Singler posted two videos on Instagram, bringing attention to his dire situation, stating he “fears for his life every day.” Following his posts, he received numerous supportive messages from players in the American Basketball league.
A former NBA player is sending out a desperate call for help. The ex-forward for the Detroit Pistons and Oklahoma City Thunder, Kyle Singler, posted two videos within a day on Instagram, explaining that he is in a critical situation. “I need to make an announcement because I feel like I’m being silenced again, and every day it is drowning me. I have been betrayed, abused. People in my community make me feel like I’m the one who is going to create problems and make things difficult for others when I am just trying to help. I feel unvalued. I have been in this house for five years, and it’s a hole. I’ve left my community. I’m trying to be surrounded by my family and friends to start a new career, begin a new life, and everyone makes me feel like a fool, creating chaos. My life hasn’t changed at all. I am held hostage in this situation. People are making up false stories about me. All I want to do is create business in nature to let people feel free,” the 36-year-old American explained on Tuesday, November 12, in brief excerpts where he is seen shirtless in his living room.

Call me whenever you want. Please,” commented Love on one of Singler’s posts.
Love also shared a message on his X (formerly Twitter) account, stating: “To everyone who has spent time with Kyle Singler and has been touched by him—please shower him with the love and support he needs and deserves. I wouldn’t be who I am today without him. I am forever grateful to him and love him. To the NBA family and the South Medford community—let’s be there for one of our own.”
