MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Howard Porter had recovered from drug addiction and failed NBA dreams to become a mentor to young players and source of hope for troubled adults in the Twin Cities. His inspirational life ended with a mysterious death.
A week after he was found severely beaten in an alley, Porter, one of the best basketball players in Villanova history, died Saturday night. He was 58.
Minneapolis Police Lt. Kim Lund said Sunday that police were awaiting a report from the medical examiner to determine the cause of death.
