As a young\'n this Queensbridge product ran tournaments in his neighborhood park using the spaces in-between the monkey bars as baskets. A raw talent he grew and developed into a low post barbarian, unstoppable in his pursuit of wiping the glass clean and getting his text book put backs. The bulk of his playing days were spent on the streetball circuit where he earned the nickname "Da Guardian".

When his brother made it to the league, the family headed west to the great state of Indiana, where he found himself practicing with NBA pros giving them the business (his brother included). Throughout, he\'s struggled with depression and has been in some dark places, but with the help of his bride to be and the love of his family he\'s been able to work through terrible times to get himself to a happier place.
