Ex-Sonic Robert Swift's still living in foreclosed home

http://seattletimes.com/html/nba/2020415331_robertswift23.html

snip-

Former Sonics center Robert Swift, known for a string of injuries, tattoos and long red hair, may now be known for something else.

The 7-foot-1 Swift's home has been foreclosed and bought by a new owner, but KOMO-TV reports that he is not leaving the house.

The new owner bought the house in Sammamish in January for half the price paid in 2006, but KOMO-TV reported she hasn't been able to move in because Swift has not left the property. A car without a hood is in the driveway, empty cans of beer are strewn outside and a bullet hole is in a garage window.

A woman who said she was Swift's girlfriend told KOMO he couldn't talk because he was sleeping.

I remember when he was a tall, gangly red head just out of high school. What the heck happened?

a multimillion dollar contract is just trouble waiting to happen. It's too bad that he did not at least spend a couple of years in college getting some sort of education.

I hope he can find his way out of this mess, but it sounds like he has other issues now.
