    Hey, thanks Mark. I knew that Wright had died, but couldn't think of a way to just bring that up. You're right, it was better to just get rid of the quote. Also saw that someone added that Klay Thompson's father was joking, which was good. I can't believe I didn't find that when I was researching the story.
