Not that Quinton Ross. From that article.
Initial reports that the victim is former Nets basketball player Quinton Ross are incorrect, police said.
here's the original lede (I still have it open in my browser):
A former Nets basketball player who’d been hounded over money recently was found buried in a shallow grave on the Far Rockaway beach Monday morning, The Post has learned.
The body of Quinton Ross, 32, was stuffed into a trash bag that was hidden in a patch of weeds midway between the water and the boardwalk at Beach 40th Street, cops said.
A law-enforcement source said he had been reported missing to the 103rd Precinct in Jamaica, Queens, on Thursday.
