    I pulled this out of the Kermit/Rudy thread thinking it deserved a life of it's own:

    Washington had been searching for a tryout for Sonny Watson, 25, a talent he had found, in an odd irony, while consulting last season in China.

    Tomjanovich, in Oakland to watch Yao Ming, not only consented to take a look at Watson, he insisted. After a long workout Thursday, Tomjanovich invited Watson to join Rockets training camp in October.


    The only info I found on him mentioned he was invited to 76ers camp once...nothing else.
