He is the only active player right now that was picked in the 2nd round, and right now he his paying big dividends for Alaska.
At 4-4, Alaska is looking good heading into the break and look to continue that so that can be in the playoffs for the first time. Alaska has a solid supporting cast around JA with Zow,Quincy Haynesford,Abdul Johnson and a new bench in DeYoung and Slasher.
K-Mac is averaging 14.38ppg and 7.38apg and is the emotional leader on Alaska. Alaska fans love him, The team loves him, and if he keeps playing like this, the #3 will be theirs to love. K-Mac is turning into a superstar about as quick as Hilary Duff is turning into a diva and Alaska loves it that way.
