In the midst of a playoff battle Hughes brother Justin, passed leaving the player in utter despair. His teamates would lend support in attending Justin's funeral. Hughes would pay tribute to his fallen loved one by tatooing two tear drops below his left eye.
In the event of his brother's passing Hughes once again exhibited courage and resilience. "Hughes immediately returned to St. Louis to resume his role as the strength of the family. In the program for the funeral service, Hughes wrote, "I am my brother's keeper. My life is his world. His life is my everything."
