WTF Moment Of The Day

From May's notes today in the Globe:

The Celtics soon plan to send assistant GM Dave Wohl out to the D-League's Anaheim Arsenal to scout a familiar name: Kedrick Brown.

Yup, the same Kedrick Brown the Celtics took with the 11th pick in the 2001 draft out of Okaloosa-Walton College and who basically turned out to be little more than a human pogo stick. He hasn't played in the NBA since 2005.

But after spending a couple of years of "getting his life in order and his career back on track," according to Arsenal coach Reggie Geary, Brown is back on the radar screen. He's averaging 14.6 points and 5.5 rebounds a game for Anaheim.


That's fucking retarded, in every sense of the word, good and bad.

Honestly, this story almost topped Kedrick, from the UNLV website, and thanks to HoopsHype:

LAS VEGAS - Former Runnin' Rebel legend Larry Johnson received his degree from UNLV on Friday during winter commencement at the Thomas & Mack Center.

Johnson was among approximately 2,000 graduates at the ceremony, which started at 9 a.m. He received his bachelor of arts degree in social science studies. After a successful professional basketball career, he returned to UNLV to finish his degree and also fulfilled a promise to his mother. His studies allow him to be a strong role model for his seven children and serve his goal of becoming a teacher, basketball coach and mentor at his former middle school in Dallas, Texas.

LJ!
