    Michigan's Fab Five at a Glance
    By The Associated Press
    http://www.statesman.com/sports/con...eral_Basketball_News/BKC_Fab_Five_Glance.html

    Here's a look at Michigan's Fab Five at a glance, with their roles 15 years ago, what they're doing now and a comment on each from Chris Webber:

    JALEN ROSE:

    _Then: Point guard who could score, pass and defend while playing with moxie.

    _Now: Seldom-used reserve for the Phoenix Suns.

    _Webber: "Jalen was our leader. His swagger we really followed."

    JUWAN HOWARD:
    [​IMG]
    _Then: The power forward was the first to commit to Michigan, making him a recruiter.

    _Now: Averaging nearly 10 points a game as a key player for the Houston Rockets.

    _Webber: "Juwan was the technician. Mr. Fundamentals, Mr. Professional."

    CHRIS WEBBER:

    _Then: Explosive center talented enough to be the NBA's No. 1 pick overall in 1993.

    _Now: Rejuvenated five-time All-Star in his first month with new team, the Detroit Pistons.

    _Webber: "I just waited for everybody to give the word and I would attack like a dog."

    JIMMY KING:

    _Then: High-flying wing player who dunked often and defended well.

    _Now: Financial adviser for Merrill Lynch in Ann Arbor, Mich., and rec league player.

    _Webber: "I remember him shutting down Bobby Hurley, and playing any position."

    RAY JACKSON:

    _Then: Unsung wing player, who deferred to his teammates offensively.

    _Now: Runs a moving company in Austin, Texas, and a not-for-profit group for kids.

    _Webber: "Nails and screws that made us fit so perfect."
