Michael Beasley shared an alarming post on Instagram that had fans worried about his safety.
The former Miami Heat, Los Angeles Lakers player lost his mother last Dec. 23 after a battle with cancer and he’s still mourning that loss. Beasley shared a pic with his mother, captioning it:
“Honestly, I’ve grown to hate so much and so many people since you’ve left. I can’t seem to shake the feeling of being alone, you don’t know how bad you hurt me mommy. I know that’s selfish but I don’t like it here anymore….. I’ll see you soon I promise #day68”
So when fans saw him sharing a story with lyrics of American rapper YNW Melly’s song “Suicidal,” it raised a couple red flags. The highlighted part said “Lately I’ve been feeling suicidal.” That put everybody on alert and several people started asking for somebody to go check on Beasley.
