Details of Hazel Stoudemire’s car crash

Officials say Amare Stoudemire’s brother was speeding before his car crashed into a tractor trailer and died at the scene.

The police also say that Hazell wasn’t wearing a seat belt. They are still investigating whether or not the 35-year-old was intoxicated at the time.

“Amare has returned to Lakeland, Florida to be with his family. He will miss today’s Knicks game against the Utah Jazz.”

Knicks coach Mike D’Antoni sent his condolences to their star player and said the team doesn’t know how long Amar’e will be gone.

“Our thoughts and prayers and everything’s with him, and whatever time he needs to take, he’ll take, and then we’ll get him back as soon as possible,” Knicks coach Mike D’Antoni said after the team’s morning workout in Greenburgh, N.Y. – SI
