WOW I AM STUNNED WITH SADNESS, awful terrible news!  I had the pleasure of meeting this young man on countless occasions.  He is really close to the C's especially Jaylen, my heart breaks for his family and everyone who knew and admired this incredible kid.  We used to joke together that we might be able to nab him with the Memphis pick if it carried over .  crushed!

Brad was broken up after the game when he heard the news.  Said his son really looked up to Clarke.

Man, this is cruelly tragic. He was a Boston kid and he seemed 100% the kind of guy who would end up a Celtic. Shattering. Only 19 too.

I was absolutely gutted when I heard this news. I was always a fan of Clarke’s since his High School day’s and dreamed of him in Celtic green. I am shocked that ESPN didn’t cover his story at all to my knowledge.

I have seen the footage of the crash and I’m even more saddened because as much as Terrance seemed like a smart kid what he did in his final moments were pure stupidity. He was racing BJ Boston, ran a red light doing what looked like 70 mph and to make things worse wasn’t wearing a seatbelt. You can hear his poor mother crying in the footage and Boston looking at his friend in his final moments with pure grief.

My only hope is this is a wake up call to kids his age.

Perhaps BJ Boston can one day fulfil his friends dreams of playing for the Celtics.

I just hope this doesn't ruin two lives.   I know a guy who killed his best friend with shenanigans of this sort and he struggled with it the rest of his life.

Yeah, this is a very common thing. My partner's uncle committed suicide after getting his girlfriend killed in a car accident. The flow-on consequences of these tragedies are horrible
