Chris Bosh doesn’t care that he’s the most underappreciated star in the NBA.
Chris Bosh’s story as an overlooked and undervalued player is one that has followed him his entire career, his entire life. Jonathan Abrams’ profile on Bosh, The Third Banana, traced the roots of this phenomenon back to his high school days at Lincoln in Dallas, Texas, where he played in the shadow of dynamic guard Bryan Hopkins. During AAU ball, per Abrams, Bosh would defer to teammates Ike Diogu (future first round pick) and Daniel Horton (later the Big-10 Freshman of the year at Michigan).
