He does kind of look like he on Meth or some Opiate in the 3rd pic but I won't assume anything.
He might have just been drunk as hell or maybe high as f*** on weed.

Not sure why his face looks sunken in though.

Does anyone actually know if he has a medical problem or this is drugs? I've read nothing that confirms either, but it has to be something.

1st picture looks photo-shopped to me. The 2nd & 3rd pictures have him looking away from the camera, while the other person/people are looking directly at the camera.

I'm not sure if they're real, but if they are, it's a sad sight.

Sad.

It's easy to go the revisionist history route, but the fact is, after Stevie's rookie season, EVERYBODY in the Basketball world thought he was gonna be something special.

Sadly, he peaked really early, and his athleticism left him it seems like overnight.

I wonder if his drug use had something to do with his rapid decline, because he became washed up quicker than any other player I can remember.

What was he trying to do last night? Fit in? Make the people in the pictures with him uncomfortable? Make RealGM sad?

Now I don't know what to think about those pics. If you look at his twitter page, it appears he's leading a pretty normal life (pics of his kids, whatever business he's running, etc). His face does look a little droopy in the pics on his own twitter, but not nearly as bad as this. The last one he looks like a damn clown.

Have some compassion, he's broken, and empty and hurting inside; that's why he's using drugs, to fill that void. He needs to cry out to Jesus.

Good for him, if he's having a good time then his drug use is his business.
