My Take
Stacey Augmon earns my admiration twice over. First as "Plastic Man," the impossibly elastic 203 cm athlete who terrorized opponents for the UNLV Runnin' Rebels and made it in the NBA. And second, more meaningfully, as the man he became after: a player development coach passing his hard-won knowledge to younger talent with the Sacramento Kings. I have a soft spot for stars who don't vanish when the spotlight moves, but instead stay in the game to lift the next generation. That quiet second act, the choice to give back, is the part of his career I find most quietly impressive.
