AK has been a fantastic addition to this Wolves team. He plays hard the entire game and it is the things that do not show up on the stat sheet like his defense, steady play and leadership that have helped this team through the injuries and adversity.

AK, you just keep on playing your game. You have been quite a nice addition to the Wolves. Yes, you did learn from some of the greatest while at Utah, however, I am glad you are here.

Nice article. For those of us out of town for a bit, could you please include one sentence about what happened? Was he traded?
