Mattias DeDoes: "I'm A Player" Cover Art

"I'm A Player - Cover Art

About The Cover:

Thanks to Keith Mackie, my hoops teammate at Gabriel Richard, for "handling the rock" in this shot ! This photo session allowed Keith to work on his left-handed dribble some more...

The "New Orleans" jersey is a little "throwback" to the well-known origins of jazz from the Crescent City...it also happens to be a former jersey from one of my favorite NBA'ers, Baron Davis (now with the Clips). I also like the Hornets a lot, and their colors are cool, too.

I also take pride in my defensive abilities on the court; having my horn with me obviously stopped Keith on his way to the hole !
