NBA 13th man

"I was sent packing, released just days into the regular season. The fact that I am here and available for poker games on the Phoenix Suns' charter plane (along with being theoretically available to play in basketball games) is a little remarkable. All it took was my return from a two-month hiatus in Russia, a trade by the Suns that sent away Case [Jacobson] and two others, and the Suns’ subsequent need for a warm body to keep the bench from tipping toward the coaches."
