Chris Avis was a pivotal ball boy for the Grizzlies during the playoffs of 2004 and 2005. During that time he delivered nachos to Zach Randolph, folded Steve Nash's warmups, threw a towel to Kobe Bryant and was scolded by Baron Davis. His crowning achievement was when Karl Malone called him "Big Man." He now serves as the fan blogger for the Grizzlies and is one half of the writing team at Rocking the Suburbs.
