You Never Know Where You'll Find Kueth Duany's Stuff

by Sean Keeley on Jan 16, 2012 9:00 AM EST in Syracuse Basketball

Former Syracuse Orange basketball player Kueth Duany is currently the managing director of Duany Group, an investment company that is heavily invested in various Sundanese businesses and infrastructure.

The Duany Group might also want to start diversifying a little, perhaps in the infrastructure of North Bergan, NJ storage bins. Especially ones that include tons of Kueth Duany gear.

Steven Monetti is a "professional" storage locker purchaser and he recently purchased the rights to an unclaimed unit that seems to have belongs to Duany's sister.

"What caught my eye, it looked like a collector basketball in this 8 x 10 unit," says Monetti. There was more than just that Syracuse vs. Kansas commemorative basketball from the 'Cuse's 2003 NCAA title year among the stash.

Monetti has Duany's No. 13 Orange game jerseys, when he played alongside current Knick Carmelo Anthony, Duany's Big East Sportsman of the Year plaque, sneakers, commemorative basketballs and photographs of Duany with former New York governor George Pataki, to name a few of the items. The Sudan-born Duany is a U.S. citizen, but according to his Twitter account, he currently is back in his homeland.

Duany is currently in the Sudan trying to rebuild his country through good deeds, being self-less and helping a newfound democracy built on community.

Monetti, meanwhile, is being as American as possible.

"I want to get at least what I paid for the (storage) room, which is $4,800.00," says Monetti. "But (Duany's wife) said she could help me meet celebrities, or go to some games."

God bless America.

I hope that's a misprint

Please tell me there’s an extra zero on the end and there really aren’t people with five grand to blow on storage rooms full of other people’s junk.

The guy sounds like a douche, so I’m betting he bought it for $480 and is trying to sell it for $4800.

Watch Storage Wars

People pay big bucks for storage lockers.

Duany's sister is the idiot.

I’m assuming it went up for auction because she A) didn’t pay the storage fee or B) completely walked away at the end of a contract. Thanks for thinking of me, Sis!

The right thing to do is to give Duany his SU stuff back. The capitalist thing to do is sell it back to him at a reasonable cost. The scumbag thing to do is to sell it off to someone outside the family.

That said, I’ll give him 10 bucks for the jersey. ; )

I mean the guy should get his money back

If he’s willing to give the stuff back to Duany he should get his money back. Its not his fault Duany’s sister was being an irresponsible twit and didnt pay the storage fee. Why should he suffer??? Pay the man…pay the man his monnney.
