Redick's focus on endurance finally paying off

On a team that boasts Superman, Orlando's best-conditioned athlete doesn't choose to roll shirtless at almost every camera opportunity. He's also not half-man, half-amazing. The guy that grades out better than Dwight Howard and Vince Carter and any other member of the defending Eastern Conference champs prefers a lower-key approach.

 

Yes, he's probably the Magic's highest-volume consumer of hair gel and handkerchiefs, but that doesn't change the facts. It's J.J. Redick. Really.

 

"It's an athletic game," Redick said. "Being in shape and being able to run is key for me to be on the floor and get minutes."

 

 

Nice read anyway. Sorry if it was already posted.
