Mike James played nearly 600 games in the NBA from 2001 through 2014. Undrafted out of Duquesne, the Amityville High alum averaged 9.9 points per game throughout his career.

Just prior to signing his first NBA contract with the Miami Heat in 2001, James played professionally in France and Austria.

James had many stops across multiple NBA cities, including Boston, Detroit, Milwaukee, Houston, Toronto, Minnesota, New Orleans, Washington, Chicago and Dallas.

Perhaps his most fruitful stay was with Detroit in 2004 when he was a reserve member of their championship team.

His best individual season, however, was with the Raptors in 2005-2006 when he averaged career highs with 20.3 points, 5.8 assists and 3.3 rebounds per game. He also shot 44.2 percent from three-point range, one of the top marks in the league.
