My Take
Steven Adams is the kind of player I have always rooted for. A 211cm center out of Rotorua with a proud Tongan name, he has bounced across four NBA teams not by flash but by doing the unglamorous work nobody cheers for: bruising screens, gritty rebounds, holding the paint. To carve out a long NBA career from New Zealand, half a world from the league, takes a toughness that stat sheets never fully capture. His 2014 hometown honour says plenty about where his heart stays. I respect grinders like him more than highlight machines, and Adams is the archetype.
