Player Diary Writers
by Alex Schwartz
I've been writing about it through my twitter for the past week or so, and the list of ballers who have committed to do player diaries for Northstar Basketball is finally here! I have 11 players who have elected to take me up on my offer and write on the site, and the list is pretty good, if you ask me. Although I had one big-time player unfortunately have to drop out today due to school—that's great to see kids care!!!--the group still has some firepower. Check it out:
