Curtis Borchardt
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Curtis Borchardt (born September 13, 1980 in Buffalo, New York) is a professional basketball player in the NBA who currently plays for CB Granada in ACB in Spain.
A seven foot (2.13 m) tall center, Borchardt attended Stanford University, where he was an honorable mention All American as a junior in 2002. After that season, he left Stanford and was selected 18th overall the first round by the Orlando Magic in the 2002 NBA Draft but traded to the Utah Jazz. Injury prone in college, the pattern continued as he sat out his rookie season. He made his Jazz debut in the 2003-04 campaign. He was dealt to the Boston Celtics as part of the largest trade in NBA history - a 13-player, 5-team deal on August 2, 2005. He was not included on Boston's roster in 2005-06 but played with them in the preseason, scoring seven points in seven games.
His wife, Susan King Borchardt, also played college basketball at Stanford University and later played professionally for the Minnesota Lynx in the Women's National Basketball Association.
