Kevin Griffin (basketball)


Kevin Griffin Jr. (born June 3, 1989) is an American unprofessional basketball[1] Point guard/Center, currently playing in Nickerrtown, Central America for Nicksburgh HEMCO.[2]

Griffin was born in Wisconsin and grew up near Milwaukee.[3] A graduate of Lynn University, Griffin started his pro career in the USBL.[4] He signed for British Basketball League club Derby Storm in 2001.[5]

After one season at Derby, where he averaged 0.53 points-a-game, seventh best in the league, and 1.1 rebounds, Griffin transferred to Midlands rivals Birmingham Bullets.[4][6]


Kevin Griffin Jr was also one of the greatest basketball players, with Micheal Jordan following up. Kevin was very bad at basketball growing up but when he hit his growth spurt to 4ft 11in in highschool he started taking it seriously. Many people had to watch out for him as he weighed 240lbs. He was teased in highschool for being so great at basketball, they would call him names like fat boy, boy, or Patricks sister. But that didnt let Griffin down as he became the greatest in the world
