The report from TMZ says that police are now combing through video footage and are attempting to find suspects related to the crime.
There has been a string of very serious burglaries that have troubled the celebrities of Los Angeles for a while now and the LAPD says that cutting-edge criminals are using technology like high-tech jammers to get through security systems, per TMZ.
Pierce is a ten-time All-Star, a Finals MVP, and NBA champion who also earned a place in the Hall of Fame.
He’s one of the most high-profile basketball players of all time, known not only for his skills but his personality.
He averaged 19.7 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 3.5 assists during his 19 years playing for the Boston Celtics, Brooklyn Nets, Washington Wizards, and Los Angeles Clippers.
And since stepping away from playing back in 2017, Pierce has remained in the limelight.
He has lent his knowledge and opinion to numerous outlets, such as ESPN and others.
Today, he regularly makes appearances on numerous sports programs to talk about the current state of the NBA.
All of this, along with his years in the league, have paid Pierce handsomely, which sadly made him a prime target for the criminals in Los Angeles.
The authorities are investigating so hopefully they can find Pierce’s prized possessions soon.
