Louis Amundson: The NBA's new Highlander

Louis-Amundson-Highlander Name: Louis Gabriel Amundson
Born: December 7, 382 B.C.
Height: 6'9
Weight: 225 lbs
Purpose: Hope

Interesting Facts
Amundson became the first immortal to play in the NBA since Daryl Dawkins and Orlando Woolridge and the league's first Highlander since Scot Pollard. 

The 6'9 energetic forward is the envy of all NBA players, with his inability to reproduce and never become a father. 

The 2,390-year-old fears no man, but does have grave concerns about "meeting his fate one day with a decapitation by rim." 

Career Highlights
- In an emotional passing of the baton, Scot Pollard gifts Amundson his powerful glasses.
- August 23, 2008: Amundson signs 200-year contract with Phoenix Suns.
- November 3, 2008: NBA approves cape for Amundson.
- Shows up at WrestleMania IV to get a trim at Adonis's Beauty Shop; ends up feeding Piper his own kilt and making out with Miss Elizabeth.
- Stabbed 17 times by Benzino to no avail.
- Has month-long threesome with Connor MacLeod and Brenda Wyatt.

Strange But True
- Favorite player is not Detlef Schrempf
- He won't tell us who his favorite player is
- Wishes Ulf Samuelson had a horn
- Played 25 games with the Colorado 14ers of the D-League (The 14ers! This one is actually true)
- Amazingly, he's not foreign
