New Year Means New Faces
This 6’8, 31 year-old Josh Davis guy for Memphis, on a NBA roster for the first time since 05/06, scored 10 points Sunday night in 40 point loss to the Bulls. He and Sam Young led the Grizzlies in scoring. Anyway, Josh kinda looks like Ross the Intern, formerly of The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. [...]
