Have you ever heard the Adreian Payne story? Talk about overcoming obstacles. His mother died in his arms at age 13. Classmates teased him for being an “idiot" in high school. He didn't allow the world to deter him from his dreams or change who he was. He helped provide inspiration to a local girl battling cancer in a very heartwarming and motivating story. Check it out here.

Go Green! Go White! Go Lacey! Adreian Payne will make his return tonight against Penn State after missing 6 games with a sprained foot. The versatile forward who averages 16.2 points and 7.7 rebounds could be a future millionaire, projected as a first-round pick in this summer’s NBA draft. Sounds to me like he is already a very rich man.
