Bereavement?
Published 3/23/2007 by Dave <info@blazersedge.com> at Blazer's Edge
... As our good friend Samuel has pointed out, and as Casey at Oregonlive has posted, the Portland Tribune has published another article this morning saying Zach Randolph was at a local strip club Tuesday night...a night he was on bereavement leave because of the death of his friend and also a night when the Blazers had a game.  Reaction seems to be subdued so far, but varied.

He went on leave Monday night but it doesn't seem as if he made it his business to get out of Dodge right away. He was spotted in a Portland area strip club late on Tuesday night, hours after the Blazers beat the Wizards without him at the Rose Garden. His body may not have been with the mourning family of Lamar Cannon but his head does sound like it was elsewhere.
