Bryce Alford was back home this week, if home can be the state in which you lived the first six months of your life. He'd like for it to become home again, be the state he lives out his boyhood career, but is fully aware of the NBA's dream-crushing tendencies.
For now Alford is continuing his life as a basketball vagabond, which never has been by his choice or preference. As a kid growing up in a household funded by an upwardly mobile college basketball coach, he moved from Manchester, Ind.; to Iowa City, Iowa; to Albuquerque, New Mexico; and then to Los Angeles.
