Former Saint Joseph’s coach Phil Martelli said he is working to get help for Delonte West, one of his former players, after a video appearing to show the former NBA guard rambling while in handcuffs went viral on social media Monday.
Martelli, who coached West and Jameer Nelson for three seasons at Saint Joseph’s, responded to a post from Nelson asking for people to keep West in their thoughts.

In the video, West is sitting shirtless on a curb with his hands behind his back, and he is being questioned about an altercation.
West says he was approached by someone with a gun and then goes into an indecipherable rant.
