Even with a guaranteed deal -- signed last week after 29 teams passed him during waivers -- Chriss' time in Golden State beyond this year still is cloudy. Nonetheless, the former first-round draft pick is finding solace in a young career that's been anything but stable. Chriss took heed to the message, averaging 21.9 points, 11.6 rebounds and 3.1 blocks as a senior at Pleasant Grove High School, garnering Divison I interest along the way, giving credence to his newfound NBA ambitions.
"I think being a competitive kid and being somebody who wants to be better than most people and better than people that I'm going against," he said."I think that that was something that I wanted to do, was try to go as high as possible." "Turbulent to say the least," he said."I mean, I went through a lot of change, a lot of culture shock."
