I'm Cory Nelson and I'm a huge basketball head. I played for a local club when I was a teenager and started loving the sport right then. Now, I watch as many NBA and WNBA games as possible, all while covering the sport! I previously worked for Sports Illustrated's fan site "Inside the Heat" and Fansided's site "Wiz of Awes"
