Best known for:
– Amazing array of hairdos
– Having a lip birthmark that made it look like he always had the herp
– Giving Gordo Hayward a wet-willy
– Shredding next to LeBron on the late-‘00s Cavs
– Getting arrested while fanging down a highway on his motorbike with a bunch of guns in a guitar case like he was El Mariachi in ‘Desperado’
– Allegedly banging LeBron’s mum

Dead-Set Ledge Status:
– Assured! Mate, everyone reckons he was the reason LeBron & the Cavs crapped the bed against the Celtics in the 2010 ECF and pushed LeBron out of Cleveland (the first time)! Regardless of him banging/not banging LeBron’s mum, that’s DEAD-SET ledge-ness right there. Has had well-documented battles with mental health problems and everyone likes to laugh at him, but I reckon he seems like a great bloke. Just don’t introduce him to your mum.
