Last Monday night’s contest between the Phoenix Suns and Utah Jazz should have been an ordinary game like any other. However, it turned out to be anything but that. With the Suns’ newly signed guard Jimmer Fredette, a former BYU standout, in town, fans of the local university came out in droves to support their former hero.
That in and of itself was a fine gesture. Jimmer’s story undoubtedly is an inspiring one. Especially if you were a fan of his in college, who wouldn’t want to see him return to his college home in his long-awaited return to the NBA?
