OverviewSeattle Post-Intelligencer sports writer Dan Raley followed basketball standout Brandon Roy form Seattle's Garfield High School to the University of Washington and then to the NBA. Roy was a role model who played hard, respected teh game, and was squeaky clean--no drugs, no alcohol, no tattoos, no trouble with the law, and he was a family man. Every mother loved him. He was a great player, too. Knee injuries, however, appeared to end Roy's short but amazing career with the Portland Trail Blazers in 2011. Yet, with the latest medical treatments and great resolve, Roy looked to make a stirring comeback with the Minnesota Timberwolves.
