Earlier this week, Zhang was accused by former TSM member Doublelift<\/a> of looking to borrow $70,000 to pay for his grandmother\u2019s cancer treatment. Furthermore, Zhang was accused of selling former TSM support SwordArt\u2019s $80,000 car for him and keeping the money to himself, according to Dexerto\u2019s report. He realized that the money received from the sale of SwordArt\u2019s car wouldn\u2019t be able to pay for his grandmother\u2019s treatment, so Zhang turned to asking for players in the organization for money to pay back his debt to SwordArt, which the former TSM support threatened to make public if Zhang didn\u2019t pay him back, according to Dexerto’s report.<\/p>
