Six Man: Aaron Ross

Coming off the bench and filling up the box score is quite a tool to have in the sport of basketball. Back in my glory days of 7th-Grade A-Team basketball, I was the tenth guy on a ten-man team (hey, four of our five starters on that team have played or are currently playing DI basketball, I was not that bad). Even as a twelve-year-old, I knew my role on the team--take a couple charges, shoot some outside shots, it is not the worst thing in the world if you get into foul trouble, etc. My only option was to embrace that role if I wanted to stay on A-Team, which I did.
