Bradly Most Active Mormon NBA Player, Most PGA Players Take Week off

NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- The Dallas Mavericks' Shawn Bradley remains the most active Mormon player in the NBA, playing 25 to 30 minutes of every game, while Travis Knight and rookie Mark Madsen manage only about 5 minutes a game. Scott Pollard plays somewhat more, nearly 20 minutes a game. And the playing time makes a difference, with both Bradley and Pollard scoring about 17 points per hour on the court, while Madsen manages 14 points per hour on the court and Knight just 6.4 points per hour on the court.

Meanwhile, only Jay Don Blake even entered a PGA event this past week, but he was cut after the second round. Other golfers took the week off, while the senior tour and the Buy.com tour have yet to get started.

One Mormon player is expected to participate, Edwin Mulitalo, an Offensive Guard for the Baltimore Ravens. Since statistics are not available for offensive linemen, Mormon News has no further information on how Mulitalo performed during the year.
