MEMPHIS – Basketball Hall of Fame finalist Chris Bosh rarely let a day pass in the Heat’s locker room without cracking on then-rookie Justise Winslow for his serious demeanor and “mannish” appearance, despite entering the NBA as a 19-year-old lottery pick.
“He just got here, and been in the league 10 years already,” Bosh would say, simultaneously ribbing and respecting Winslow’s approach back then. “He’s got a grown-man voice, walking around here with hair on his chest. If there’s ever a 19-year-old vet in this league, it’s Justise.”
