About Me

WWW.BENGORDON.COM

What's up! I play shooting guard for the Chicago Bulls. This is my second year in the NBA and my first year on MySpace. It's been a wild past couple of years. Two years ago I was playing for the Univeristy of Connecticut. We won the NCAA National Championship that year. In 2004 I was drafted 3rd overall by the Chicago Bulls and ended up winning the Sixth Man of the Year and was voted to the NBA All Rookie Team. But that's enough about me. If you want to know more you can visit my website as www.bengordon.com. This page space was specifically created so that I could interact with fans and to allow people to get a little insight into my personal and professional life. Feel free to leave your comments, send me and Instant Message, or visit my website. CLICK HERE TO VISIT BEN GORDON'S OFFICIAL WEBSITE

The athlete that I admire most?
The athlete I admire most is Bill Russell. He has a championship ring for every finger. Today people always talk about the best players as the guys who score the most. Bill Russell was the ultimate player because he made everyone around him better.

Who do you think had the biggest influence on you becoming an NBA player?
Lowes Moore, former Mt. Vernon standout and NBA player. I would also say the guys I played against on the playground growing up.
