LOOK: Tremont Waters honors his dad with special messages on his shoes
Former LSU star Tremont Waters is playing with a heavy heart in the NBA Summer League on Saturday.
On Friday, his father, Edward Waters Jr., was found dead of an apparent suicide in a hotel room in Connecticut.
However, Waters opted to play on Saturday, surrounded by friends and family. And, as you can see below, he had a special message honoring his father on his shoes:
