Phoenix Suns star Steve Nash will carry the 2010 Winter Olympics torch during a portion of its 45,000-kilometre, cross-country journey to Vancouver.

Nash, a Victoria native, has confirmed his participation, according to numerous reports.

Thousands of people will run a portion of the route over 106 days, culminating in the lighting of the cauldron at B.C. Place in Vancouver.

The Olympics are Feb. 12 to 28 in Vancouver and Whistler, B.C., followed by the Paralympics from March 12 to 21.

Nash will be in Victoria next week to accept an honorary degree from the University of Victoria at a special convocation ceremony Sept. 18.

In addition to his outstanding career in professional basketball, Nash is the creator of the Steve Nash Foundation, which helps disadvantaged children.

The university is lauding Nash for his off-court qualities as a role model and community leader.

Nash is also an Officer of the Order of Canada, and was recognized with the Order of British Columbia.

Since the Suns aren't winning anything next year....I could care less. 2nd place and 30th place are the exact same thing.

he he. Dok you are a very bitter suns fan. Low expectations are good though. Maybe they will surprise you.

Unless they surprise me with a championship, then next season will be a disappointment. When you give a 35 year old player a contract extension, your telling your fans that you're a contender, and that the fans should expect a championship.

Is there really any defense involved in carrying the torch? Nash will be fine!:lol

"Nash triumphantly carrying the Olympic torch through his hometown, Bruce Bowen with a water cannon puts the flame out! Nash didn't even see it coming! He's stumbling about in a daze... hip-checked by Horry into the rosebushes! Oh, Canada, the humanity!"

[Rip-Hamilton32]
