Basketball Media Day Recap: Pat Chambers Fiercely Defends Mike Watkins

When asked why he continues to give Mike a chance instead of simply booting from the roster, Chambers cited Mike’s rough upbringing in Philadelphia and how afraid he is of Mike ending up in the streets should have remove him from the team.
