Hawks' West Living a Dream

In the ATLANTA JOURNAL-CONSTITUTION, Sekou Smith writes "Mario West is well aware that it's a bit unusual for the entourage of an NBA player to include an 8-year-old nicknamed "Boo." West, though, is most certainly not your usual NBA rookie. He's anything but. He still lives at home in Douglasville, with his parents, Gerald and Angie, and his biggest cheerleader/critic, 8-year-old Chandler West. The former walk-on at Georgia Tech made the Hawks' roster on sheer hustle, hard work and an unwavering faith that a man who toils relentlessly without fail would be justly rewarded. West beat immeasurable odds to land the 15th and final spot on the Hawks' roster."
