    Seeing this now is so sad. What an incredibly brave young man. Rest in peace.

    1. He just turned 20 years old.
    2. She has been such a huge supporter for him. She moved to Dallas when he got drafted so she could go to all his home games.
    3. I honestly wouldn’t want my mom to live alone in a new city. Why not have her live with me? Home cooked meals, keeps me grounded, honest perspective on how I’m doing, etc.
    Good for you D-Live. We love you in Dallas!

    I dont get why they always have to make lively uncomfortable simply because a 19 year old has his mom living with him...hes a damn kid still. He might have the money to survive but theres alot more a mother can still teach. Thats literally a teenager still

    I’m so optimistic with this kid. I see so much potential. I wish Dallas can win the Season so he gets a ring while still a rookie. 🙏
    Living with parents till early 20s’ is pretty normal here in the Philippines.
    Majority of Filipinos would live with their parents until they graduate in college at the age of around 20 or 22 unless they would study on another state or province.
    After college, those who decide to work on their home state or province, 70 to 80 percent of them would still prefer to live with their parents until they get married.
    Filipinos are very sociable and so they would always like to be around with their relatives and friends. So living with their parents for as long as they could makes everyone happy. 😉

      It's because of the difference in the concept of family. In the west, spending time with your parents later in your life has to be scheduled. It's an appointment. Sa atin, it's normal to see them regularly/everyday. Sakanila, you have to move out. Find a new house. Sa atin, we expand our house/compound to accommodate the growing family.

    She was involved with her son and the team. Her cancer that had gone into remission? Might have used wrong word, came back and passed away April 12. I think it definitely helped the team together and propel the as of now Western finals.
