Not many fans know it, but Liggins wears No. 34, honoring his late brother, Maurice. Maurice wore the number in high school in Chicago, a rising star attracting college scouts, and was buried in his jersey a decade ago. He was then shot to death, gunned down on school grounds while defending his sister. The Rev. Jesse Jackson spoke at the service, preaching nonviolence in the city while 14-year-old DeAndre mourned. Only a few months earlier, he had lost his father, who died from complications of diabetes, and moved in with his grandmother. "[Maurice] makes me work harder. If not for him, I couldn't be here. I guess everything happens for a reason," Liggins said. Orlando Sentinel

He has an image of Maurice's face tattooed on his right shoulder. Liggins will tell you that it was Maurice who was destined to become a star. DeAndre was content to play pickup games in the street until that fateful day. "He was the guy; I was just a regular kid," Liggins said. "I didn't know how good I was. I wasn't playing any kind of structured basketball. I was playing for fun. …[Maurice] was playing to go somewhere. "When he passed, I had to follow his dreams." Orlando Sentinel
