Dmitri lived by a straightforward moral code: he was here to serve others. He never felt egotistical and prioritized the needs of others over his own. From an early age, it was clear that he had a strong passion for basketball, which drove him to pursue a career in the sport and tour the globe spreading his enthusiasm for it. His upbringing, coupled with an instinctive desire to give back, inspired him to start Rise League Inc., a nonprofit organization that promotes business education and youth basketball.
Dmitri Thompson’s life was greatly influenced by his family, which included his father Dwight Thompson, mother Lesa Thompson, older brother Dwight Thompson Jr., and younger brother David Thompson. The family’s tie was solid, and he felt a great sense of belonging. They treasured every moment they had as a family, whether they were going to see Dmitri’s games or spending time together watching movies.
Dmitri was married to Ashley Clerrobrun, the passion of his life. Over the past four years, their love has grown as a result of their shared adventures, dining at new places, and spending time with close friends and family. Dmitri and Ashley imagined a future filled with love, laughter, and happiness.
