SOME REASONS WHY THE LEGEND OF STREET BASKETBALL PROFESSOR CAN’T BECOME A NBA PARTICIPANT

by

If you are a fan of basketball, you may know a famous player whose name is Professor. He has made a good impression with many people around the world thanks to his skilled hands and special playing in this interesting sport. Why this talented basketball player don’t take part in any competitions of the NBA, which is one of the most well-known leagues in the world?

Grayson Boucher has established his reputation as a potential player when he joined some international tours of And1 as well as gameshows of ESPN. Many NBA players keep in touch with him in order to get some experience and his extraordinary skills. However, this 36-year-old man said that he didn’t feel confident enough to give it a try. 

  1. Height – The first barrier

He owns a medium height of 1m75 which is the same measure with Isaiah Thomas or Chris Clemons – who are the shortest players in the NBA. This feature sometimes prevents them from participating in some sporting events because they are not tall enough to touch the ball. Clemons was undrafted and had to find another chance in Summer League, while Thomas was finally picked in the sixtieth turn. These typical examples proved that becoming the official member of the NBA is quite difficult if you don’t have ideal height.  

  1. His unique play

Although Grayson Boucher will not have many chances to play in the NBA, his playing helped him to create his own image as a street basketball player. This was also a reason why he didn’t suitable for NBA. “ About 15-20 years ago, I have tried my best to apply to NBA by joining some small tournaments like IBL or CBA, which were the precursor of G-League. Despite my great efforts to prove myself, my style couldn’t meet the NBA’s requirements. 

  1. Importantly, the NBA is not all the thing he wants to achieve.

To all ballers, being a member of the NBA is a big dream in their life, which may take a long time to gain. However, in Professor’s point of view, the NBA is not the only one target in his career. He feels satisfied with everything that he has been awarded for years and just wants to go on doing that. “ Many people think that I have missed a lot of chances and money but I don’t have the same ideas like them. My happiness is encouraging people to realize their ambitions with the ball.”

THE LEGEND OF NBA DECIDED TO ABANDON HIS SON JUST FOR A SMALL AMOUNT OF MONEY

Throughout two decades in NBA, Karl Malone is treated as one of the most famous superstars in basketball. Many people admire his excellent talent as well as the determination in building up his career. However, the way he has treated with his son is very heartless and leads to a serious controversy around his life. From 1985 to 2004, Karl Malone has worked as an official member of Los Angeles Lakers and he spent most of his time contributing to Utah Jazz. The 57-year-old player made a good impression with spectators and achieved many valuable prizes throughout his career. He was the heavy opponent of Michael Jordan- a professional basketball player of all time.

According to the world lists, Karl Malone had totally 14 times taking part in the All-star, two times achieving MVP All-star as well as a full season. These are some shining examples of his individual prizes in his life. Thanks to a great contribution to this sport, Karl Malone was honored a T-shirt with number 32 by Utah Jazz as a special thanks for his loyalty to the basketball team. Unluckily, the nice image that Malone has established for years became meaningless when he had a bad attitude toward his son.

At the end of the 1980s, Malone faced up a serious problem with a woman named Gloria Bell. She informed all of the people that they had a son called Demetress Carte Bell when she was just 13 years old and Karl Malone turned to 20.  Gloria Bell said that she felt very depressed because she didn’t have a job to earn a living and she had to bring up the son too. Therefore she hoped that Kark could provide her an amount of money every month which was up to 200 dollars. Although this might be small money in comparison with the high salary of this player, he decided not to support anything for his son at that time.

Gloria Bell couldn’t accept this bad behavior of Karl and she threatened to take legal action against him over his irresponsibility toward his son. The judge asked her whether she wanted to sue him for having sex with a woman under 16 or not, she declined to do that and just wanted to get some benefits from him. The chairman informed that Karl Malone had to support his son about 125 dollars each month, but he seemed not to agree with this decision. 

Time is the best way to prove anything. It can also help people forget all the bad things in the past and start doing a better one. Luckily, the relationship between Malone and his son is becoming better as you can see the appearance of Karl Malone in every Demetress Bell’s tournament. “ I know I am wrong. I will try my best to compensate for anything I have done with my son”.
