I still remember the game when he manhandled Texas in Austin single handidly! The guy played way above the rim and won some NBA dunk contests. That a Texan calls Oklahoma City home when he could live anywhere he wants in the nation is a tribute to this fine city. He endured a lot of childhood adversity to make it to the top. Nearly lost both legs to severe burns. He’s an inspiration and OKC should be proud to have him as a citizen!
