Last week, Nate Jones dreamt of a world in which James "Flight" White would dunk in Vegas. Either the Spurs have been reading the FanHouse, or Popovich likes the highlights more than we thought. From the San Antonio Express-News:
White called up: The Spurs recalled James White from the Developmental League on Saturday. In 15 games with the Austin Toros, White averaged 16.3 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.67 steals in 34.4 minutes.
So there you have it. White is now officially a member of the National Basketball Association, and is in prime position to compete for the title of World's Greatest Dunker. I am beginning to think conspiracy here, on up to the highest levels. What if the powers that be are counting on White to make it an event? Or they aren't particularly thrilled with who they've got lined up?

Regardless of the reasons behind it, this is certainly something worth celebrating.
