David Stockton: Chip Off Old Block

David Stockton is reminded of his famous bloodlines in every opposing gym he visits, but one taunt from a game back in December stands out. "The best sign was at Washington State," he recalled. "It said 'Stockton's Money = Stockton's Minutes.' That was my favorite one." It's hard to ignore the fact that the Gonzaga redshirt freshman reserve is the son of NBA Hall of Famer and all-time assists leader John Stockton. For 19 professional seasons, he was the epitome of consistency and savvy on the floor for the Utah Jazz. But to think that David arrived at this point on name alone is flat-out irresponsible/Ryan Greene, Rivals.com (via Yahoo Sports). More here.

Question: Are you looking forward to watching David Stockton lead Gonzaga over the next 3 years as much as I am?
