Klay Thompson posts tribute for the late Michael K. Williams to social media, "A true leader, you will be so missed brother"

Actor Michael K. Williams — who most notably played the character Omar Little on hit TV series “The Wire” — was found dead on Monday in his Brooklyn penthouse, due to what is suspected to be a heroin overdose, according to multiple reports.

Williams, 54, was vocal about his issues with drugs over the course of his career. He admitted during the filming of “The Wire” that when he was getting into the role of Little, a character who robbed drug dealers, it affected him in his real life.

Klay Thompson, who spent time with Williams during the filming of a commercial, posted a tribute to the late actor to his Instagram account on Tuesday.
