Spencer Dinwiddie: An underdog who shocked NBA

Spencer Dinwiddie sits in front of his locker with a plate of watermelon in late October. He might be nervous, but you’d never tell by looking at him.

The Nets were set to face off against LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers and Dinwiddie was about to start for the first time last season, nearly 11 months after the Nets plucked him from the G League.
