Alex Stepheson Rises to Another Level

Posted Feb 22, 2006

Basketball is a game for giants, and 6-foot-10 Alex Stepheson of North Hollywood Harvard-Westlake is making everyone look awfully small. Over a 14-game stretch, Stepheson has been rebounding as if he could leap tall buildings in a single bound. He has grabbed 21 or more rebounds 10 times during his monthlong tear. In consecutive games, he had 32 and 31. Stepheson, who signed with North Carolina in November, is averaging 20.4 points and 17.7 rebounds. (Los Angeles Times)
