My Take

Cameron Bairstow is the kind of athlete I instinctively root for. A 208 cm Australian from Brisbane, he worked his way from a local high school to the University of New Mexico, then heard his name called 49th in the 2014 NBA draft by the Chicago Bulls. After two seasons at the top, he returned home to compete for years in Australia's NBL. I love that arc: glimpsing the summit, then carrying that hard-earned experience back to your own country. There is a real dignity in giving back where you came from, and his size paired with that quiet resolve makes him easy to admire.
