Sebastian TelfairApparently Al Jefferson wasn't convinced teammate Sebastian Telfair could dunk, so he put $500 on the line to see what he could do. From Steve Kyler of HOOPSWORLD:
Bassy apparently tossed the ball off the backboard and jammed it home. Bassy openly questioned Al about where his money was; Al responded jokingly "I don't pay people I can beat up..." Guess Al forgets Sebastian is from Conley Island – they don't play in Coney Island.
Jefferson's a big dude, but he might want to check Bassy's luggage or glove compartment before he follows through. In other breaking news, Kyler reports that Magic guard Mikael Pietrus had a new cast put on his left hand -- "mainly because he was getting so much crap about the little soccer balls all over the last one." It's a shame: Dwight Howard would make a great goalie.
