Sad story. Kid went to college, and played on the basketball team. Then he turned to drugs, as reflected on his mugshot. After that, committing a robbery didn't seem so far-fetched.
Knowing him personally, he would have never ever pulled the trigger, but he still committed a robbery and he has to do the time if he did the crime.
