Since entering the League in the vaunted 2003 NBA draft as the sixth pick following LeBron, Darko, Melo, Bosh, and Wade, the Caveman played the bulk of his career as a Clipper. And not the exciting, League Pass darling Clippers that we see today. The 2003-2011 Clippers were yet to be saved by Blake and CP3.
But they had the Caveman who has had his share of highlights, and lowlights .
Not only did Kaman receive attention for his bizarre long stringy light hair, and as a spokesperson for individuals misdiagnosed with ADHD, he was also the victim of a Reggie Evans nutgraf.The Clippers take what they can get.
The highlight of Kaman's basketball career came while representing Germany alongside Dirk Nowitzki at the pre-Olympic qualifiers in 2008, and Eurobasket in 2011.
Now a member of the New Orleans Hornets following the Chris Paul mistrade and trade, Kaman is reaching back to his roots. Growing up on a farm, hunting was a regular activity for his family.
The NBA, however, was unprepared for Kaman's sense of humour.
Before his Hornets played the lowly (5-34) Bobcats, Kaman tweeted a picture of himself holding one of his hunting trophies with the headline “Guess who we r playing tonight?”
Holding a dead Bobcat in his driveway did little to impact the actual game, which his Hornets lost 73-71 in New Orleans.
Strange trash talk aside, Chris Kaman continues to surprise many along his crazy ride through the NBA.
