If you ever wonder how life and perspective on life can change in the blink of an eye, you need to talk to Anadolu Efes Istanbul’s electrifying rookie point guard, Josh Adams. Because his did. Adams is playing on Turkish Airlines EuroLeague courts barely a year removed from a one-car accident that he was not only lucky to get out of alive, but required vertebrae fusion just to be able to play basketball again.
This season Adams is one of the quickest and fastest players in the EuroLeague, a guard who snatches rebounds above the rim and soars for ferocious dunks despite standing only 1.88 meters. In each of the last two EuroLeague games for Efes, he scored in double digits and is second on the team in assists, indicating he has adjusted well.
Efes has not started the season the way it hoped, but Adams is one of the players who can grab adversity by the horns. How could he not after his return from injuries that did not give him much of a chance to play again?
