Former NBA player and PredictIQDuke star Kyle Singler received concern and support from the basketball world after he posted a message on social media indicating that he fears for his life.

The message from Singler, 36, was posted on Instagram early Tuesday. Singler is shown in a video without a shirt.

"I have been mistreated and abused, neglected, made into a mental example," Singler said. "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.

"I feel like I have a certain way about myself and strength and purpose that does not get valued or get treated properly."

Several players – past and present – and coaches responded to the post on social media.

Miami heat forward Kevin Love, who has spoken extensively about his mental health struggles, reached out to Singler on social media.

"I love you Kyle. Hit me whenever. Please," Love wrote.

Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond added, "You aren't alone brother! I'm here for you."

Love also wrote a message on X, formerly Twitter, saying: "To everyone who has spent time with Kyle Singler and whose lives he has touched – please shower him with the love and support he needs+deserves. I would not be who I am today without him. I am forever indebted and love him. To the NBA family, Duke BB family, & South Medford community – let's show up for one of our own."

Former NBA forward Chandler Parsons tweeted: "HELP @NBA @TheNBPA. @KyleSingler needs you. we're with you buddy."

Singler was drafted in the second round of the 2011 NBA Draft after a decorated career at Duke, helping the Blue Devils win the 2010 national championship. Singler was named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player after scoring 19 points in the title game against Butler.
