Francis was bought out by the Memphis Grizzlies last year. He's currently a free-agent.

Fixed that for you.

P.S. - In the Cayman Islands, they pronounce "cabana boy" differently. They've shortened it to "Cuttino".

they interviewed him during one of the rockets games as he sat courtside a few weeks ago. he looks to be happy in retirement.

wonder how far we would have gotten with a Francis/Mobley/Cato/Jim Jackson/Yao starting 5 if the tmac trade had never happened.

it was almost 10 years ago in 2000 when Francis and Elton Brand were named Co-rookies of the Year

Injuries really hurt his career after he left Houston. It's a shame. He was a good player and was the reason the Rockets weren't the Clippers of the league when Olajuwon hung em up.

once a player suffers an injury and loses their hops they are never the same. He was a great talent when he was injury free. Sorta like Penny and Grant Hill, but quite their level.

I'm sorry I haven't been funny. I am not a comedian. I am Lenny Bruce.
