Last week team CJP added their final player to their 2014 Fall Tuesday Night Team. That player is Sean Hunt. Hunt, 36, lives in Lawrence, KS and will be making his return to city league basketball for the first time since 2010. Sean and a few other players from Curtis J. Phillips Basketball have been playing basketball over the past few weeks in a Monday night pickup game. Most notably CJP big man Mike Logan as the two of them have been playing basketball with and against each other since 2006. Thus when team CJP captain and general manager Daniel Sondreal asked Logan his thoughts on adding Hunt to the team, Logan simply and boldy replied with "He's my guy." Therefore with Mike's backing and history with Sean and the fact that Sondreal liked the way Sean carried himself during the aforementioned pickup games they asked Sean to join the team. "I had only played basketball a few times with Sean but it was easy to see he is a confident player. He doesn't shy away from taking big shots and in fact the first time I ever guarded him I believe he drilled a three on me for the win. He also is great at attacking the hoop. His confidence, ability to get to the hoop, and clutch shooting will be a great addition to our team" said Sondreal in an interview with Grantland.com's Zach Lowe.
Hunt will be sporting the number 8 and lists Scottie Pippen, Hakeem Olajuwon, and Michael Jordan as his favorite basketball players of the past and as for present day players he likes James Harden, Lebron James, and Kevin Garnett.
