One reason Spree couldnt feed his kids
Sprewell yacht repossessed
Former NBA star has defaulted on mortgage loan, bank says
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel -
Former professional basketball star Latrell Sprewell, who three years ago rejected a $21 million contract offer, calling it insulting and saying he had a family to feed, had his 70-foot, $1.5 million, Italian-built yacht repossessed Tuesday.
Armed with an order from U.S. Magistrate Judge William E. Callahan Jr., a federal marshal seized the vessel in Manitowoc, where it sat in storage.
Callahan is presiding in a court case filed by a New York bank that claims the yacht's owner, a company run by Sprewell, has defaulted on a mortgage loan.
The firm, LSF Marine Holdings, hasn't made monthly payments of $10,322 on time and hasn't maintained the necessary insurance on the vessel, North Fork Bank alleges.
It wants the yacht, "Milwaukee's Best," sold to pay off the $1.3 million it says is remaining on the loan. Sprewell has guaranteed the loan personally, a contract filed with the court shows. He could not be reached for comment on the repossession.

he could be a pretty good 6th man off the bench for the Magic if he is somewhere close to where he was a couple years ago.

Sprewell's Yacht Sells At Auction, House Could Be Foreclosed
February 11, 2008 - 7:35 pm
MSNBC -
Latrell Sprewell's yacht sold at auction on Monday and his home could be foreclosed in order to pay the $1.3 million he owes on the yacht.
In court documents, the bank said Sprewell owed $295,138 in outstanding payments plus interest on his house.
Sprewell failed to make his mortgage payments of $2,593 per month from September 2007 to January 2008, the documents said.

It boggles the mind. I hope he dies of the Bubonic Plague or Anton Chigurh.

Poor Spree. I guess $100 million just doesn't go as far as it used to.
