    <div align="center">[​IMG]</div>


    Andre Iguodala played two years at Arizona, averaging 12.9 points, 8.4 rebounds and 4.9 assists as a sophomore and complementing those numbers with a steady flow of highlight-worthy dunks. With the ninth pick in June?s NBA Draft, the Sixers grabbed this AI to complement that AI. Now, as SLAM?s Rookie Diary keeper, the 6-6 wing follows in the footsteps of Drew Gooden and Carmelo Anthony, two of the NBA?s bright young stars. Take it away, Dre?

    What?s up? Right now I?m in my hometown, Springfield, IL. I just came back from Philly, where I bought a house today. These last three months, it?s been real wild, I?ve been moving around a lot. Sometimes you?re flying from this city to this city to this city, three or four places all in the same week.


    Honestly, it?s kinda cool?it makes you feel like you?re important. You just have to keep focused mentally. My agent said it?s like being Jay-Z out there, being on the road every day. You always have to be on your game. When I was at Arizona, we might travel to Seattle and then play Washington and Washington State on the same weekend, but this is nothing like the Pac-10. </div>

    I saw this up on their website a while ago, nice read, but I'm not subscribed to SLAM anymore, that magazine is going downhill.
