This afternoon I returned home from the inaugural "Jeff Capel Oklahoma Basketball Fantasy Camp," held July 1-4 in Norman. This entertaining NEWS9 clip tells about the camp:
When Coach Blake Griffin drafted me, I promised him I wouldn't let him down, assuring him, "What I lack in size, I make up for by being slow." Regrettably, a subsequent nail drill through my big toenail slowed me down even more, and I had to spend the final three games on the injured-reserve list. Despite Because of this development, Team Blake Griffin was able to claim the championship, defeating Team Alvan Adams today 68-61.
My fellow camper Jason Black has more about the camp here, including a great anecdote involving Wayman Tisdale's high-school coach and my uncle Bill. And if you go to the 0:26 mark of this clip, you'll see me dishing to Mike Houck for one of his many treys of the weekend.
