I know alot of people are going with Jordan, but hes my favorite NBA player by far. I went to the same high school as him and was born a block from his house. NC knows their college basketball like no other state in the country.

Which athlete did you idolize growing up?

Haha. I'm kind of interested in seeing some responses, but I remember as a little kid, I was obsessed with anything Jeff Bagwell did. Then, I met Coco Crisp at a game as a prospect a couple years back, and he became my favorite player.
