From Stever, a little male practice player flashback:

He had played against NBA center Tyson Chandler in high school. He faced off with Detroit Piston Tayshaun Prince that same year. But nothing quite prepared him for his first practice with the Cal women's basketball team.

He walked onto the court with plans of using his street-ball mentality and just trying to get a decent workout, but he knew the situation was slightly more precarious when two other practice players-both former walk-ons for the men's basketball team-told him the same thing: we're not guarding Devanei Hampton today, it's your turn. The walk-ons wanted no part of the dominant center, who averages 13.8 points and 8.0 rebounds a game and consistently plays with a reckless intensity.
