Chase Budinger (this cracker can jump...)

Anyone heard of him - playing at Arizona now... is a member of the US Volleyball squad and has a 43inch leap... I am wondering - what other white guys surpass or come close to this - for example - what was Sammy Mac's leap when he first came into the league??? Cause i remember seeing him do some awesome things (World Junior Champs in Greece in '95 - he could not be stopped above the rim)...

Budinger was the number 1 ranked volleyballer in the US coming out of High School.

He learnt his jumping craft by playing beach volleyball on the beaches in Cali.

He's a 6-7 SG that is projected as a lottery pick in the 2007 draft behind Oden, Durant, Noah, Thabeet(7-3 defensive monster) and Wright.

This season he's putting up 19.6ppg along with 7.7rpb.
