The BIG3 family was in a state of shock over the sudden and tragic death of one their own, Andre Emmett.

“Our BIG3 family is so sad and so sorry…”, Amy Trask.

Andre was a member of the BIG3 for two seasons and never without a smile on his face.

His kindness towards others and easy-going demeanor made him a joy to be around.

Off the court, Dre was passionate about helping young people through his Dreams Really Exist foundation.

Everyone has been simply heartbroken by this devastating loss.

Thoughts and prayers are with Andre’s family, and all of his love ones during these difficult times.
