Terrible news out of Puerto Rico, as former Michigan Wolverine and NBA lottery pick
Robert “Tractor” Traylor was found dead on the bedroom floor of his oceanfront apartment
of a massive heart attack. Known mostly for being traded on Draft Day for Dirk Nowitzki,
Traylor never lived up to his potential in the NBA, but his large jovial presence was
welcome in every locker room he called home. Traylor was playing for the Bayamon Cowboys
basketball team in the BSN league of Puerto Rico. He was 34. Rest in peace, big fella.
