My Take

Javier Carter is the kind of journeyman big man whose story I find genuinely respectable even without household-name fame. Coming out of Cleveland and developing his game at South Alabama, he took the path so many fringe pros do, grinding to keep a basketball career alive wherever the opportunity exists. At 203 cm he has the frame to make a living in the paint, and players like him are the unsung backbone of leagues around the world. There is something admirable about chasing the game past the point where the spotlight follows, simply because you love playing. I always root for the grinders.
