Its too early to know if alcohol or drugs were involved, but he ran a red light...If anyone dies he will probably be charged..

It's been the strangest year in terms of players getting hurt/killed/in trouble that I have ever seen. Granted Im only 17.

Denver Nuggets player J.R. Smith remains hospitalized after crash
Denver Nuggets guard J.R. Smith remained hospitalized Sunday, a day after he was ejected from his sport utility vehicle during a crash in Monmouth County, but a team spokesman said the injuries should not keep him off the court.
"J.R. is fine, there is nothing career- or life-threatening," Nuggets spokesman Eric Sebastian said Sunday afternoon. "I did not hear anything that would suggest he is going to be out any games. He is more concerned about the other people in the accident."
Smith and a passenger, Andre Bell, 21, of East Orange, were seriously injured Saturday when the SUV Smith was driving went through a stop sign and overturned after colliding with a car at about 5:30 p.m. in Millstone Township, state police said.
Carroll Marshall, 23, another passenger in the SUV, and Lynn Sinatra, 49, of Millstone, who was driving the car, sustained minor injuries. They were taken to CentraState Medical Center in Freehold, where they were treated and later released.
Both Smith and Bell were ejected from the vehicle, said Lt. Brian McPherson, commander of the state police's Hamilton barracks. Bellâ€â€who sustained life-threatening head injuriesâ€â€was airlifted to Jersey Shore University Hospital in Neptune, while Smith was taken there via ambulance.
Further details on their status and their injuries were not disclosed Sunday.
