Character, leadership (http://www.christianpost.com/topics/leadership/), integrity, and faith, :lmao...before I get into it...I will list mine:
David Robinson ( for being an Apostle re-incarnate)
A.C Green ( for being the first 40 yr old virgin)
Tim Duncan ( for being Robinson's bitch)
Ray Allen ( for once saying that KG curses too much)
Mahmoud abdul-rauf (not a Christian but he was my boy wouldn't pledge the flag - Muslim)
I had no idea about Allen Houston... ( I think he turned Christian only when he tried to revive his career) :lol
Here's a Sample:

Character, leadership (http://www.christianpost.com/topics/leadership/), integrity, and faith, Dave Lower, spokesman for Athletes in Action, told the Christian Post.
At the third annual All-Star Breakfast on Saturday, the sports ministry honored two Christian leaders in the NBA with two esteemed basketball awards for their demonstration of such qualities on and off the court. The awards honor a current or former NBA coach, owner or executive and a current or former NBA player, respectively.
Allan Houston, a two-time NBA All-Star who is considered one of the all-time leading scorers in N.Y. Knicks history, took home the Bobby Jones Award.
This is the best example ever: :lmao I can just see this happening...none of us have this type of integrity and that's a fact...:lmao
My ball headed the other way...:lol
According to Lower, Jones was a fine example of a Christian NBA player who exhibited integrity even when it was not called for. In one game, Lower said, Jones admitted that the ball went out of bounds on his account even though the mistake was made on his team's side of the court and the referee didn't witness the fault.
Houston beat out A.C. Green, an NBA All-Star who played the most consecutive games played by anyone in the NBA, and David Robinson, a 10-time NBA All-Star, Olympic Gold Medalist, 2-time NBA Champion, and NBA MVP, for the award.
Ernie Johnson, studio host for "Inside the NBA" on TNT, served as the emcee for the event.
The All-Star Breakfast is hosted by Athletes in Action (AIA), the sports ministry of Campus Crusade for Christ International. It is part of a series of events by AIA designed to honor athletes and coaches who model exemplary character, values, integrity and faith.
