Hottest NBA players
Cleveland Cavalier player LeBron James is one of Kansan reporter Christine D'Amico's top picks for hottest NBA players. He could not beat out New Orleans Hornets' Chris Anderson's sex appeal, though.
5. BUCKETS BLAKE, HARLEM GLOBETROTTERS
He's not in the NBA, but he's got the moves to impress the ladies. This Globetrotter trots in at number five because of his unusual moves and his devilish smile.
4. DWIGHT HOWARD, ORLANDO MAGIC
He's tall with a boyish face and slammed dunked his way into number four on our list. A devout Christian from Atlanta, Howard is sure to be a heartbreaker.
Even his male fans agree. Chris Valentino, 25, thinks Howard's sex appeal comes from his performance on the court.
"He's the next Shaq," Valentino said.
3. LEBRON JAMES,
CLEVELAND CAVALIERS
His new commercial for Vitamin Water where James sports a suit may have something to do with him making the list. He may seem cocky, but
it's the edge women can't resist.
Jessica Steinbrueck, 20, St. Louis,
agrees.
"I like a man in a suit, I find that sexy," Steinbrueck said. "Plus he's the closest looking to Darnell Jackson."
2. MARCUS CAMBY, DENVER NUGGETS
Camby, who plays for my hometown heroes, is tall, sexy and confident. His good looks and presence on the court make him my No.2 pick for sexiest basketball players.
1. CHRIS ANDERSEN,
NEW ORLEANS HORNETS
His sex appeal is unmatchable, at least in the NBA. His tattooed muscular frame and wild hairstyles, tussled to perfection, makes Andersen the bad boy you can't resist.
"He's the sexiest because he's a tall glass of water," Hall said.
Laura Hall, 2008 graduate, agrees.
I couldn't have said it better myself.

BRIEF
Radio personality lmus defends'sarcastic'remark
NEW YORK — Don Imus is defending a remark he made about the arrests of suspended Dallas Cowboys cornerback Adam Jones, saying he was trying to "make a sarcastic point."
Imus spoke Tuesday on his morning show about the on-air comments that sparked a flurry of criticism. Imus
said Tuesday: "What people should be outraged about is that they arrest blacks for no reason. I mean, there's no reason to arrest this kid six times."
During a conversation Monday about the arrests of Jones, Imus asked,"What color is he?"
Told by a sports announcer that Jones is "African-American,"Imus responded:"There you go. Now we know."
