If you like feel good stories...

You will like the story of Lester Hudson. I am a little biased since I went to school with him, but I got to talk to Lester several times and he is one of the most humble and nicest people you will ever meet. He always used yes sir, no ma'am, and talked to anyone that crossed his path.

I hope Lester can make it in the league. He was fun watching play at TBA.

Besides that Booby Miles haircut, right? He really is a good person so he deserves to make it. Celtics coaches are impressed with him so I pray he makes it to the regular season. I can promise you he'll out hustle 99% of people in the league.

Lester Hudson's stat line tonight: 7 minutes played, 2-2 on 3-pointers, 3 assists, 1 block. The man is a baller

I'm very biased, he's a better person than he is basketball player. I think he was a steal with the 58th pick though. He got lucky and went to a contender

University of Tennessee-Martin, an Ohio Valley Conference school. There was no real solid competition in conference but he dominated against teams like Vandy, Miss St, Memphis, etc.

It is probably tougher to make it as a pro in basketball than any other sport. Just says alot he made the roster, much less contributing.

I went to high school with a guy who plays second base for the Marlins. Unlike your stories, I do not have alot good to say about him. He went the other direction to get where he is, could have been alot nicer and is a major jerk.
