I'm just a normal guy who happens to be obsessed with basketball. I've been around it my whole life and can't seem to ever get enough. I've won a 3-point shooting title and three slam dunk contests (no small thing for a 6'2" white boy). I've found a lot of good ball-focused writing on the internet as well as a lot of bad and I figured, hey...why not me? So here I am - enjoy and feel free to contact me if you want to talk ball.

“What these young bloods have to understand, that this game has always been and will always be about buckets.” – // Latest illustration featuring your very own (and probably my favorite PG in the L right now) Kyrie Irving. // As always, comments are appreciate and you can find more here.

Did I do an illustration of Arizona Cardinals CB Patrick Peterson being surprised at his own awesomeness? Yes, yes I did. See plenty more Cardinals art and order prints here. Comments are always welcome and appreciated.
Back with yet another Thunder illustration. Figured it was time to do one of my fellow ASU Sun Devil, the NBA's 6th Man and now Western Conference Champion James Harden. Comments are appreciated and don't forget to check out my other Thunder illustrations.
Congratulations on landing the game changer aka Anthony Davis. Did this illustration of the future #1 draft pick. Comments are always welcome and appreciated. You can see more here.
I know the Sixers are battling the Celtics right now - but watching them play (especially the first 3 quarters of game 2) has made me miss Allen Iverson. You remember him, right? Little dude with a big heart. Anyway, I did this in his honor. You may want to check here for a detailed view of what exactly is reflecting in his eye.
Well the bad news is Bosh is going to be out for a minute. The good news, you have the 3-time MVP on your team. Did this quick illustration of LeBron and thought I'd share it. Comments are welcome. You can check out more of my Miami Heat artwork here.
Back with yet another Thunder illustration I like to call 'Brothers.' You can find more Thunder illustrations here. As always, comments are very much appreciated.
As a Cardinals fan, I was hoping to use this to welcome Peyton Manning to Arizona. But, in the spirit of good sportsmanship, I figured I'd share a Broncos version with you all. Comments are welcome and if you are interested you can find a lot more sports themed artwork here.
I did a Michael Jordan illustration a while back that I wasn't completely satisfied with so I decided to revamp it. This is the new look - comments are definitely welcome.
My illustration in support of the #PEYTON2AZ movement. More Cardinals art can be seen here. Comments are welcome!

Latest piece featuring the junkyard dog Jared Dudley. Went a little gritty with this piece...well...because it's Jared Dudley. As always, comments and recs are appreciated and you can find more here.
I decided the only fair way to do an illustration of a dude who has the nickname ‘Polish Hammer’ was to superhero-ize him. As always, you can find more here.
I'm an illustrator and former writer over at Bright Side of the Sun (the Phoenix Suns SB Nation blog). I did this piece for my brother, a Cowboys fan, for Christmas and wanted to share it with you guys. Feel free to let me know what you think and check out this and more here.
Was asked by the Suns to create some artwork for them to use. This is the first new piece I did with probably 2 or 3 more to follow. As always, you can see this and more here.

Whats up Heat fans? I'm a writer/illustrator over at Bright Side of the Sun and I recently finished a project where I did 30 illustrations (1 player from each of the 30 NBA teams) over 30 days. Day 29 featured your own Dwyane Wade (it was a toss-up between him and LBJ and ultimately I made the choice to go with Wade) and I thought I'd share it with you. Feel free to visit and check out this as well as follow the rest of the project. Comments are welcome and appreciated. -Dustin
