Amundson’s Long and Winding Road Leads to a Home in NYC

Lou Amundson’s nine years in the NBA resembles the Indiana Jones travel scene with red lines designating stops all over the country including 10 different cities in that timespan. Nearly each summer during his professional career, Amundson was left wondering where he would find a home – most likely a temporary place of employment before seeking his next destination.

This past season, the 32-year old became the 12th person in NBA history to play for 10 different teams. While it’s a dream to play professional basketball, the inability to settle in one location for an extended period of time can hinder a career and limit any attempt at a social life.
