year in review: 2009: Memorial for murdered teammates

Troy Simon, one of Amir Clemons' basketball teammates, wept during a brief ceremony after the first points of a basketball game at the Girls & Boys Club at 43rd and Cleveland on Friday night. The Blazers basketball team that Amir Clemons played for retired his jersey number, #15, along with his younger brother's, Gerard, #00, after both were part of the quadruple homicide last week in Raytown.
