Autopsy Finds Cocaine, Heroin Contributed to Brandon Clarke’s Death
The medical examiner said multiple prescription drugs also contributed, and investigators found drug paraphernalia and a white powdery substance at the scene.
- On Monday, the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner released autopsy results confirming Memphis Grizzlies forward Brandon Clarke died from the effects of heroin and cocaine, ruling the death an accident.
- Investigators found drug paraphernalia inside the Woodland Hills residence where Clarke was discovered unresponsive on May 11, with his roommate reporting he had "a history of drug use with prior stints at a rehabilitation facility."
- Six weeks before his death, Clarke was arrested in Arkansas for trafficking and fleeing law enforcement, with deputies reporting he reached speeds over 100 mph while possessing more than 230 grams of kratom.
- Clarke's estate will receive the remaining $12.5 million owed on his contract, as Agent Bartelstein confirmed the Grizzlies negotiated a life insurance policy protecting the deal.
- Drafted 21st in the 2019 NBA Draft, Clarke played his entire seven-year career with the Grizzlies, though injuries including a torn Achilles limited the forward to just six games during the 2023-24 season.
