The Los Angeles home of an NBA pro was reportedly burglarized last week before the NBA Finals began. The home has been identified as one owned by retired Clippers player, Patrick Patterson. Details are currently minimal and it’s unclear if Patterson or any other residents were present in the house at the time of the break-in. As of this writing, no suspects have been arrested and the Los Angeles Police Department is on the run for the absconders. Patterson has not yet made a public comment on the matter.

LAPD reps told the media that two men broke into the house around midnight on June 7. The home’s security system captured footage of the break-in. The suspects were seen wearing masks, gloves, and all-black outfits.

The thieves made away with two huge bags of the NBA player’s belongings before officers arrived on the scene. Again, who reported it or if the security system alerted cops is not disclosed. Officers also didn’t reveal what was stolen from the residence.

The LAPD is on the lookout for a KIA. The culprits escaped in a vehicle of that make but a description is not available at this time.

LAPD is investigating the case and a search for the thieves and stolen items is underway. While details emerge about this incident, Patterson’s home is becoming a hot topic on social media.

Patrick Patterson’s LA residence

Patterson grew up in West Virginia and went to college in Kentucky. He started his career with the Houston Rockets in 2010. Apart from a small stint in Sacramento, he played in Toronto and Oklahoma before returning to California in 2019. After the Los Angeles Clippers signed him, Patterson was setting roots here for a long time.

In 2020, he reportedly closed on a mansion in Encino worth $4 million from the CEO of Tronc, Justin Dearborn. The home’s highlights included four bedrooms, a fully-furnished kitchen, a living room with a functioning fireplace, a three-car garage, wine cellar, home theater, 29 acre backyard, and high ceilings to accommodate his 6’8″ frame. Apart from celebrity neighbors in an upscale neighborhood, the 6,200 sq. ft. mansion boasted a sophisticated security system, smart home technology, and the safety of a gated community.

A year after buying the home, he retired from the NBA in 2021. He had married influencer, Sarah Nasser, in Toronto a year before moving to LA. They are currently expecting their second child together. Nasser has also not commented on the matter since her baby update on June 1. More details are awaited on the incident.
