    Default Which Players did you idolize growing up/when you started watching?

    For me it was around 06 when I was about 12. I was born in Houston, so I was naturally drawn to T-Mac and Yao around that time. I also enjoyed watching Kobe, Ginobili, and Wade, along with Chauncey Billups and Nash.

    When I first got into basketball, my favorite players were Derek Harper, Nick Van Exel, Charles Oakley, Juwan Howard, Anthony Mason, Rod Strickland, and Mitch Richmond.

    Bad boys were my team growing up. Loved Laimbeer and Salley when he came on board.
