My school is hosting an event featuring the Harlem Magic Masters (basically a minor league version of the Globetrotters) with members of the AND1 mixtape tour. They will be playing the South River Ken B. Dunn (our basketball and baseball coach) All Stars.
But the best part of it all is that my main man, Gheorghe Muresan will be playing for the South River all star team!
I will take pictures of the event and hopefully I will get Muresan's autograph and a photo taken with him.
FYI, Muresan, along with fellow former Bullet Manute Bol, is the tallest player ever in the NBA at 7'7.

Good Lord....he's tall......make sure whoever is using the camera stands way back if they try to get both of you in the picture.
Have fun ! I'll be at the Police Academy - Class #1. Woo Hoo !

I ran into "My Giant" at a Wizards game a couple weeks back. I'm short - 5'6" -- that guy is ridiculously tall. I shook his hand and it practically wrapped around mine twice... too funny.

I saw the Harlem Wizards play the Police and Fire Departments in my town once.

Well, I got to meet him. He was really nice. He signed both of my cards and a piece of paper for my brother-in-law.
I shook his hand as well. His hands are huge! He has a really strong grip.
He couldn't run very well (bad knees are my guess).
The Magic Masters crushed the All Star team by about 20 points.
I will post pictures later.

Nice, Jake - I think in addition to his knees, he has a bad back. He's a big dude!

That wouldn't surprise me. I think I saw him driving his SUV into the parking lot. He had to bend over (with his head touching the roof) to see through the windshield. I feel bad for him.
