Cougs of certain generations remember Aron Baynes rumbling up and down Friel Court during the Tony Bennett years. The big Aussie was a wrecking ball in the paint, and after a four-year career playing in Europe, he made his way to the NBA where he won a championship with San Antonio in 2014.
Baynes has played for five NBA teams and was a key player for Australia’s Olympics team last summer in Tokyo. That’s where things got very scary for Baynes after he took a bathroom break between the third and fourth quarters of Australia’s game against Italy.
