SALT LAKE CITY — Though he wasn’t a spokesman for Dos Equis, Boris Diaw was occasionally called “The Most Interesting Man in the World” during his NBA career.
Diaw was, after all, a guy who took a cross-country joyride and visited multiple national parks in Utah after being traded to the Jazz from the San Antonio Spurs a few years ago. He was famous for loving his particular type of coffee so much that he bought the team cappuccino machines for locker rooms at home and on the road. A Grantland story detailed how he cleared the rack on the vertical leap machine at practice while wearing flip-flops.
