Rashad McCants is mentioned briefly in the New Yorker last week.
It's a nice profile sort of article, "Queen of the D-League," about Nancy Lieberman. She's been a trailblazing woman in basketball, and her latest stop's as head coach of the Texas Legends. The article -- it's not available online except as an "abstract" -- is pretty fun; Lieberman calms her team down the stretch at one point by calling over Antonio...

I always knew former Tar Heel Rashad McCants had decent range, but this — well, this is something…
After five NBA seasons in which he averaged 10 points, 2 rebounds, and 1.3 assists per game, it now appears former UNC star — and integral part of the Heels’ 2004/2005 NCAA Championship team — Rashad McCants may be returning to “prison.” Only on the big (and/or small to medium-sized) screen this time.
Yes, according to the Big Lead, McCants is hoping...

Lettermen In The News: UNC’s McCants To Remain In The U.S.
North Carolina’s Rashad McCants isn’t heading to China after all.
Apparently McCants and his agent didn’t move fast enough. The team he was trying to sign with decided to sign another foreign-born player to fill its quota for the season (Chinese teams can’t have more than two foreign-born players). So McCants will remain with the D-League’s Texas Legends. We hope that won’t...

Michael Beasley crossed with Rashad McCants:

Yes, it's a difficult-to-read "Misunderstood" with a question mark in the background.
