It is not the first time Bullock has lost a sister to tragedy. On July 16, 2014, Mia Henderson, a 26-year-old transgender woman, was fatally stabbed in a Baltimore alley, The Sun of Baltimore reported.
Bullock shared his grief in an Instagram post.
"I never felt so BROKEN in my life! My 2 queens, my 2 that go super HARD FOR ME!" Bullock wrote next to a photo of Moore.
The Knicks posted condolences on Twitter to Bullock and teammate Dennis Smith Jr. on Tuesday. Smith's stepmother died suddenly Sunday.
On behalf of Knicks President, Steve Mills: Our Knicks family is deeply saddened by the sudden passing of Reggie Bullock & Dennis Smith Jr’s close family members. At times like this, we are reminded that life is bigger than basketball. Our thoughts are with them & their families.
