I just noticed that Shaun Livingston has been playing for the Thunder for the last 4 games, and has averaged 7.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 2.3 assists in 22 minutes per game.  I know those aren't huge numbers, but considering the horrific injury he had, the fact that he is even able to be on the floor is impressive.

I really hope he is able to resurrect his career.  He is only 23 years old, and if he can regain some of his athleticism, he could be a hell of a player.  Not to mention the Thunder may be the perfect situation for him.  They have an incredibly talented SG in a PG's body, and he is a PG in a SG's body.  Not to mention the idea of him running the middle of a fast break with Durant and Westbrook on the wings is very enticing. 

If he is really coming back healthy, and sticks with the Thunder, and they can find a way to pick up a defensive big man (like I don't know, Tyson Chandler?), they could be a really fun team to watch next year.

My advice to him is "If you can't stick in the NBA try to go to Europe or Brazil or something, and make sure to save your money cause you'll probably need it to attend Duke, so you can get an education and get a job."
