Kurt-Thomas
Kurt Vincent Thomas (born 4 October 1972 in Dallas, Texas) is an American professional basketball player with the NBA's Phoenix Suns. Thomas is a 6'9", 235 lb. forward/center known for his hard-nosed playing style and tough defense. He graduated from Texas Christian University. A natural power forward, he spent most of his career playing the center position with the Knicks and Suns. Despite being undersized at that position, he is renowned for his ability to grab rebounds, and for his consistent mid-range jumpshot, a rare commodity amongst big men.
