Here's an interesting piece from ESPN The Magazine about Brandon Jennings' transition from high school to professional ball in Italy. The 18-year-old Jennings is playing for Lottomatica Virtus Roma, which is the same team Allan Ray plays for, and A-Ray is helping the young point guard both on and off the court. After Jennings was thrown out of the gym by his coach for dogging it during practice: "After practice, Allan Ray, the former Villanova star who is in his second year with Virtus Roma, gave Jennings a pep talk. Ray got kicked out of several practices last season. "
"Jennings leaves the crib for three things: basketball, food and visiting those famed Italian landmarks—Gucci, Prada and Versace. He usually hits those hot spots with the 24-year-old Ray"
