... in 2007, your University of Kentucky Wildcat alumnus Chuck Hayes scored a career high 12 points and helped the Houston Rockets win 98-90 over Utah in the playoffs. Chuck started tons of games for the Rockets in 2007, averaging 27 minutes a game. In the 2005 NBA Draft, every team passed on Hayes, but Houston gave him chance and he made the most of it, playing 40 games during his rookie season. The team has picked up his option every year since and Chuck is again on the playoff roster in 2009. Chuck is the poster boy for what a great work ethic can do for you. He has started at center nearly every game since Yao Ming got hurt as the Rockets' starting center.....a 6'5" (maybe) starting center.........in the NBA! Unbelievable. Whatever happens in the video below can be blamed on the rabid UK fan base.
