figures that the one guy who didn't play professional ball ends up being the best citizen of the bunch.
Ray Jackson was a guard for the Michigan Wolverines from 1991 to 1995. Jackson was part of the famed "Fab Five" freshman with Chris Webber, Jalen Rose, Juwan Howard and Jimmy King. The Wolverines reached the NCAA Tournament Finals in both 1992 and 1993, Jackson's freshman and sophomore season. In his senior year of 1995, Jackson averaged 15.8 points per game for Michigan.
Jackson was the only member of the "Fab Five" to never make it to the NBA. He was picked up by the Knicks as an undrafted free agent in 1995, but was cut prior to the start of the season. Jackson was drafted by the Grand Rapids Hoops of the CBA and earned the 1995-96 CBA Rookie of the Year.
Jackson currently resides in Austin, Texas. He runs a moving company and is President of R.I.S.E. Up Inc. RISE Up is a non-profit organization that stressed the need for today's youth. The program provides social, educational, and recreational opportunities for children through the use of basketball.

What makes you think he's the best citizen? The others contribute to communities as well.
Rose is a supporter of his alma mater and was seen rooting for Michigan's basketball team during the 2006 NIT Final Four with fellow ex-Wolverine, Maurice Taylor. Rose is also known for his philanthropic efforts. He contributes to inner city youth by helping to build reading centers. He has also given Dikembe Mutombo a check for $100,000 to help with the construction of an operating room for the hospital Mutumbo built in the Congo. [1]
Webber is active in various charities and created The Timeout Foundation in 1993. The foundation's mission is to provide positive educational and recreational opportunities to youth.
In 1999, Webber created C-Webb's Crew where a group of tickets at every Kings regular home season game would be donated to at-risk youth and their families. To date, over 3,000 youths and their families have attended a game through C-Webb's Crew.
Community awards Webber has won include the inaugural Sacramento Kings/Oscar Robertson Triple Double Award, which is annually awarded to a Kings player who exemplifies: team leadership, all-around game, and sportsmanship; the NBA Community Assist Award for his contributions in February 2003, and the Wish Maker of the Year in 2003 awarded by the Sacramento Chapter of the Make a Wish Foundation.
More recently, Webber held a celebrity weekend, Bada Bling!, at the Caesars Palace Hotel in Las Vegas. The event was held from July 28-July 30, 2006 and included a live auction and celebrity poker tournament. Many renowned NBA players participated including then-current and former teammates: Mike Bibby, Brad Miller, Andre Iguodala, Bobby Jackson, Kyle Korver, and his then-current coach, Maurice Cheeks. Other notable participants included Charles Barkley, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Gary Payton, Kenny Smith, Moses Malone, and Stephon Marbury. Numerous entertainers attended as well such as Nas and Common. All of the proceeds were donated to The Timeout Foundation.
