From 'Skip' to Rafer -- his ultimate crossover

From 'Skip' to Rafer -- his ultimate crossover

TEAMS: Orlando Magic
PLAYERS: Rafer Alston

Magic guard Rafer Alston made a name for himself as streetballer 'Skip to My Lou.' Now an NBA veteran, Alston has helped put the Orlando in the Finals and stands at the intersection of two hoops worlds. It seems like another lifetime, back when the skinny little kid everyone called "Skip to My Lou" ruled supreme over Rucker Park in Harlem.
