Abdul-Rauf's House Burned

The Associated Press reports that the unoccupied Gulfport, Mississippi, home of former NBA player Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf was destroyed by fire Monday. Arson is suspected. "I (once) said before I moved in, it would be burned down," Abdul-Rauf said. "This is just an indication, I think, of how far we've got to go in terms of human relations in this country." Abdul-Rauf came out of retirement to play with the Grizzlies last season. Earlier in his career he was surrounded by controversy for refusing to stand for the playing of the national anthem.
