Last weeks Stix Rock Band pattern was way more popular that I expected. Several of you added members to the band and gave them cool names. Apparently there were many of you who rocked your way through the 60's.
In this weeks stickman pattern I celebrate basketball. I call this pattern 7 Footer. The UK logo is a trademark of the University of Kentucky and NOT included in the pattern. Feel free to customize your cutting with your favorite team.
Wally was 6'9" in the 4th grade. As a senior at the University of Kentucky he now stands 7'8" and tips the scale at 175 pounds. The scouting report says Wally is a defensive stopper. In this, his senior year he is averaging 2.1 points, 4 rebounds and 18 blocked shots per game. He is a projected first round draft pick in this years church league draft. Rumor has it that Wally may forego the league and play for the Harlem Globetrotters.
Donyell "Jigsaw" Basswood
Donyell is a freshman point guard at Duke University with speed to burn. He cuts and jigs through defenses like they are nailed to the court. Last season as a High school senior, Donyell averaged 73 points per game. I researched all the box scores and discovered he actually had 1 assist in a game early in the season. In an interview after the game, the player who received the assist told reporters "The ball bounced off Donyell's foot right into my hands. I turned and scored.". It was a home game so they gave Donyell the assist.
