Danny Ferry

Danny Ferry interests me as a true two-way basketball lifer. A 208 cm forward out of DeMatha and Duke, he was rated among the very best of the 1985 high school class, so the pedigree was there early. What I find telling is what came after his playing days: he moved into the front office and became an executive shaping rosters. To me that career arc confirms he was always a thinking player, the sort of size-plus-intelligence athlete who reads the game from inside. Reaching near the top as a player and then competing again from the management side earns my full respect.
