Police aware of ex-Duke star Kyle Singler’s troubling videos

Local police said they “are aware” of concerning videos posted by Kyle Singler to his social media this month, which included the former Thunder forward saying that he “been mistreated and abused” and another video where he talks about the world being in a “religious war.”

A Medford Police Department spokesperson told TMZ that the Oregon law enforcement agency had been aware of the videos posted on the former NBA star’s Instagram account, but did not comment any further on the matter.

Singler first posted an alarming video on Nov. 11 where he appeared shirtless and barefoot in a dimly lit room and since a total of six videos have been uploaded to his account.

“I have been mistreated and abused, neglected, made into a mental example,” Singler said in the initial video. “And I fear for my life every day. And people in my community make me look out as if I’m going to be someone that’s going to be a problem and make things difficult for people when I’m only trying to be helpful.”

In another video posted on Friday, he explained his view that the world was in the midst of a religious war.

“We need to understand we are in a religious war right now across the map,” Singler said. “It’s time to ante up, make a call, make time and lay your bet … People don’t want to feel the light, put their life in the light and expand on what they already know. It’s always a fight for the mic, who has the last say? The last word?”

The videos have drawn plenty of concern for the former professional hooper and Duke star, which led the NBA Players ᴀssociation to reach out to Singler’s family.

NBA star Kevin Love pleaded with people close to Singler to give him support.

It’s unclear what will come next in the situation and authorities told TMZ, “We are not going to make any comment on any mental health matter with our citizens.”

Singler had been drafted 33rd overall in the 2011 draft, but opted to start his career overseas in Spain.
