The former NBA player was spotted holding a small cardboard sign on a Virginia highway following a BIG3 roster snub.

The 38-year-old officially returned to basketball and was eligible to be drafted to a team on Ice Cube's BIG3 league but nobody selected him. A few weeks after the snub, West is seemingly back to panhandling.

West had numerous economic and psychological problems since saying goodbye to elite sport in 2015.

Delonte West, who has battled an addiction to embalming fluid, alcohol and worked very hard to get himself back on track with the help of supporters like Mark Cuban, last played in the NBA for the Dallas Mavericks during the 2011-12 season.

Before the stint in Texas, the 1.93-meter guard spent his time with the Boston Celtics, Cleveland Cavaliers, and Seattle SuperSonics.

He holds NBA career averages of 9.7 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 3.6 assists over 432 duels.
