Afro Phenom

Shaun Livingston made headlines by being the first point guard to go straight from high school to ther NBA. Amazing as this feat is, it does not begin to match how powerful this young man's afro is.

Austin Kearns

Here is an update on the status of Austin Kearns. He's healthy so far (so he has about 2 months until he contracts sme sort of rare disease) and he came to camp this year for the Reds with new flowing locks.
