Former NBA point guard Isaiah Thomas has made a heartbreaking revelation this week, and fans are feeling it for him.
The two-time All-Star has sadly lost another member of his immediate family, disclosing as much in an Instagram post.
The guard’s sister, LaQuisha Baldtrip, has passed away at the age of 35. TMZ said the cause of death was unknown.
“Ima miss you, big sis!!!” he wrote on his IG Story. “Damn, how you leave me too? 2 sisters gone!!! This can’t be real. I love and miss you Queen.”
Thomas lost his other sister, Chyna, in a car accident in 2018 and is going through another devastating loss just six years later.
