Jamel Thomas Has Written That Book About Stephon Marbury

September 5th, 2008

Stephon Marbury's cousin, who has played professionally in the NBA and overseas, has self-published a book that seems to be mostly about how selfish his famous cousin is. Mark Lelinwalla of the New York Daily News writes of one such episode: Thomas writes that while growing up and playing basketball together in Coney Island, he and Marbury were as close as two cousins could be, but that all changed once Marbury was drafted by the Timberwolves in 1996. After Thomas graduated from Providence and it was his turn to enter the league's draft in 1999, he writes that he asked Marbury which trainer would best prepare him for workouts with NBA teams. Thomas writes that Marbury set him up with an exclusive trainer from Italy and told him, "Cuz, don't worry about it. I got you," but never picked up the bill. You may recall the odd video that Thomas made about this book a few months ago.
