My Take

Bobby Hurley is exactly my kind of basketball figure. A Jersey City product who ran the point for Duke's back-to-back champions, he was never the loudest scorer but the brain that made everyone else better, the unanimous All-American floor general. At 183 cm he won with vision and tempo rather than sheer size, which I admire far more than highlight-reel flash. What deepens my respect is the second act: pivoting from the pro game into coaching at Buffalo and Arizona State. There's something genuinely honorable about a man who reached the summit as a player and then chose to spend his life lifting up the next generation.
