Reggie Miller and his family shared devastating news Monday night.
Miller shared the news that his father passed away via his Instagram account/
“This hurts,” Miller wrote. “The man who bought me my first set of baseball shoes, my first basketball, who taught me how to drown out all outside noise and FOCUS is now and always will be my guardian angel. Thank you Pops for EVERYTHING!!! Say hello to Mom for us and know that your teachings will live on through me to my children. Please respect my brothers and sisters during this time, although (it’s) difficult that he is in a much better place.
The sports world is praying for Miller’s family.
“My sincerest condolences,” wrote Terrell Owens.
“Sorry for your loss RIP,” one fan wrote.
“🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Sending you so much love Reggie,” added another fan.
Miller’s father, Saul, had five children with his wife Carrie (including Reggie).
In fact, Saul was an athlete himself, playing basketball in high school and at Lemoyne College.
He also served in the Air Force for over two decades.
Our thoughts are with Miller and his family.
