Chris Bosh Toronto Raptors – No. 4 Power forward Born March 24, 1984 (1984-03-24) (age 25) Dallas, Texas Nationality American Height 6 ft 10 in (2.08 m) Weight 230 lb (104 kg) League NBA High school Lincoln High School, Dallas College Georgia Tech Draft 4th overall, 2003 Toronto Raptors Pro career 2003–present Awards 4x NBA All-Star 2003–04 NBA All-Rookie Team 2006–07 All-NBA Second Team Profile Info Page Christopher Wesson Bosh (born March 24, 1984) is an American professional basketball player in the NBA who plays for the Toronto Raptors. Garnering an array of basketball accolades since his high school days, the power forward left college after one season to enter the 2003 NBA Draft. He was selected fourth overall by the Raptors in a very competitive draft class. Since his NBA career began Bosh has emerged as one of the most established young stars in the league. In the process, he has become a four-time NBA All-Star, been named to the All-NBA team, appeared for the US national team (with whom he won a gold medal at the 2008 Olympics), and taken over former fan-favorite Vince Carter as the face and leader of the Raptors franchise. In the 2006–07 season, Bosh led the Raptors to their first NBA Playoffs berth in five years, and their first ever division title. He is Toronto's all-time leader in rebounds, blocks, double doubles, free throws made and attempted, and minutes played. Owing to his initials and jersey number, Bosh is nicknamed "CB4", a name first coined by former Toronto Raptors play-by-play commentator, Chuck Swirsky.[1] Off the court, Bosh is noted for his philanthropy and active community service. In recognition of his own childhood experience, Bosh set up the Chris Bosh Foundation to help promote sports and education amongst youths in Dallas and Toronto, and regularly speaks to youths about the benefits of reading.

Bosh was subsequently named High School Player of the Year by Basketball America, Powerade Player of the Year in Texas, a First-team all-American by Parade, McDonald's and EA Sports, a Second-team all-American by USA Today and SLAM Magazine, a First-team all-state player, and "Mr. Basketball" in Texas by the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches.[8] With his combination of grades and basketball skills, Bosh was on a number of college recruiting lists. Florida and Memphis made serious attempts, but it was Paul Hewitt, coach of the
Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech), who made the best impression. Bosh felt Hewitt would look out for his best interests and respect his aspirations to play professional basketball; moreover, Georgia Tech's transition offense impressed the teenager.[7] Bosh eventually chose to follow the footsteps of his cousin and aunt and attended Georgia Tech to study graphic design and computer imaging, and subsequently, management.[4] There, he led the Yellow Jackets in averaging 15.6 points, 9.0 rebounds and 2.2 blocks in 31 games, and led the Atlantic Coast Conference in field goal percentage (.560), joining Antawn Jamison as the only freshmen ever to do so.[2] Bosh originally intended to complete his degree as he valued the importance of education, but by the end of the 2002–03 season, his strong performances convinced him that he was ready for the NBA.[7] Thus, he left Georgia Tech after his freshman season[2] and entered the 2003 NBA Draft. Although Bosh said in future interviews that he misses his college days, he believes he made the right decision to pursue a professional career.[6] He also intends to obtain his college degree one day,[5] to fulfill a promise made to his mother.[4] [edit] NBA career Bosh shooting a free throw during a game in the 2005–06 season [edit] Rookie year In a strong draft class comprising future All-Stars LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, and Dwyane Wade,[7] Bosh was selected fourth overall by the Toronto Raptors in the 2003 NBA Draft and was signed on July 8, 2003.[9] Prior to his signing, however, other NBA teams made offers for Bosh as they knew Toronto needed a veteran scorer, and Raptors star Vince Carter himself pressed for a trade. General manager Glen Grunwald turned everyone down.[7] In his rookie season Bosh was forced to play out of position as the Raptors' starting center after Antonio Davis was traded to the Chicago Bulls.[10] Night in and night out the wiry teenager battled against opponents who had a significant size and strength advantage over him.[10] Bosh—who cited teammate Michael Curry as his mentor[6]—was often praised by his coaches for his heart, and willingness to play through pain and injuries resulting from his lack of body strength compared to some of the league's strong forwards and centers.[11] Bosh's contributions were not unnoticed by teammates either,[12] as he averaged 11.5 points, 7.4 rebounds, 1.41 blocks, and 33.5 minutes in 75 games, leading all rookies in rebounding and blocks, and setting a franchise record for most rebounds in a rookie season with 557.[2] Bosh was rewarded by being selected to the All-Rookie First Team for the 2003–04 season.[2] [edit] Heralded as the new hope Bosh and his team mates in a 2005–06 game against the Milwaukee Bucks. From left: Pape Sow, Bosh, Mike James and Morris Peterson.With the departure of the disenchanted franchise face of the team, Vince Carter, in December 2004, Bosh was simultaneously anointed as the new leader around whom Toronto would build.[13] In the remaining games following Carter's departure, the power forward averaged 18.4 points, 9.5 rebounds, 1.6 blocks, and 38.1 minutes per game, improving in every major statistical category.[2] In recognition of his efforts, he was awarded his first ever NBA Eastern Conference Player of the Week for games played between 3 and 9 January, 2005.[2] As the season drew to a close, analysts predicted that Bosh would become an All-Star one day.[14][15] Bosh ended the 2004–05 season as the leading scorer and leading rebounder for the team on 21 and 46 occasions respectively.[2] Prior to the 2005–06 season, Bosh was named as one of Toronto's team captains. Bosh continued to work on his game as he consistently chalked up double doubles, leading the team in scoring, rebounding, and field goal percentage for the first half of the season.[16] On February 9, 2006, for the first time in his career, Bosh was selected to play in the 2006 NBA All-Star Game in Houston, Texas as a reserve forward for the Eastern Conference.[2] He was only the third Raptor to make an All-Star game, after Carter and Antonio Davis. Bosh's selection was just three days after he was named NBA Eastern Conference Player of the Week for the second time in his career.[16] In March 2006, following a season-ending injury to Bosh,[17] the Raptors slid to a 1–10 record.[18] This highlighted Bosh's importance as the centerpiece of the offense, as well as the leader of the team. The Raptors finished the season 27–55 and Bosh averaged 22.5 points, 9.2 rebounds, and 2.6 assists per game.[19] Despite a major off-season revamp of the Raptors roster—including the departure of good friends Mike James and Charlie Villanueva—Bosh officially signed a three-year contract extension with a player option for a fourth year on July 14, 2006.[20] The deal was reportedly worth US$65 million over four years.[21] Upon signing the contract, Bosh said "I think the future is very positive for the franchise...change was needed...we have a lot of guys who just want to win and are willing to work hard."[21] During the same press conference, Bosh also announced a donation of $1,000,000 to a Toronto charity, known as Community Legacy Programs.[20] Bosh improved his numbers in ppg and rpg in the 2006–07 season and had to lead a vastly different team from the 2005–06 roster. [edit] Leader of the division champions After a shaky start to the Raptors' 2006–07 campaign, the Raptors managed to surpass the 0.500 mark as the All-Star break approached.[22] Bosh's play and leadership were pivotal to this run and as an increasing recognition of his abilities, on January 25, 2007, he was named an All-Star starter for the East in the 2007 NBA All-Star Game. Bosh received the second highest number of votes among all Eastern Conference forwards.[23] This was his first All-Star start and second overall All-Star appearance, having averaged over 22 points and 11 rebounds in the first half of the season.[23] On January 31, 2007, in a game against the Washington Wizards, Bosh scored a 65-foot (20 m) buzzer-beating shot to end the third quarter of the game.[24] He shot 15-of-15 after missing his first four shots.[25] Bosh's in-form streak enabled him to be selected Eastern Conference Player of the Month for January 2007.[26] He had averaged 25.4 points and 9.1 rebounds while leading the Raptors to a 10–5 record in that month. On February 7, 2007, Bosh's career-high 41 points prompted the home fans to chant "MVP"—an unprecedented event in the Air Canada Centre.[27] Two days later, Bosh collected 29 points and 11 rebounds against the Los Angeles Lakers, shooting 10-of-10 in the second half.[28] On March 28, 2007, Bosh became the new franchise record holder for double doubles in a home win against the Miami Heat.[29] He was named Eastern Conference Player of the Week for the third time in his career shortly after,[30] having led Toronto to clinch their first NBA Playoffs berth in five years. Toronto went on to win its first ever division title, and concluded the regular season with a 47–35 record, including a 30–11 home record, both franchise records.[31] As third seed, the Raptors played sixth seed New Jersey Nets in the first round of the 2007 NBA Playoffs. The series drew much media attention as Carter, who left had Toronto under acrimonious circumstances, was back at the ACC as a Net.[32] In the opening game, while Carter was constantly booed by the home crowd and was not an offensive threat, Toronto's inexperience was evident as they struggled offensively and were down 65–78 going into the fourth quarter.[32] A late rally by Toronto in the fourth quarter was not enough as they eventually lost 91–96. The Raptors won Game 2 at the ACC to tie the series 1–1, as Bosh recorded 25 points and a game-high 13 rebounds.[33] The Nets won games 3 and 4 to lead 3–1, but Toronto forced Game 6 when they narrowly won 98–96 in Game 5.[34] New Jersey won Game 6, however, and sent Toronto out of the first round.[35] Bosh averaged a double-double with 22.6 ppg and 10.7 rpg for the regular season, both career-highs, and posted 17.5 ppg and 9.0 rpg for the playoffs.[19] He was named to the All-NBA Second Team at the end of the 2006–07 campaign.[36] Before the 2007–08 season began, Andrea Bargnani, the number one pick of the 2006 NBA Draft, was slated to start alongside Bosh to form a strong Toronto frontcourt and Jason Kapono, a three-point specialist, was acquired via free agency from the Miami Heat to add further offense to the team; however, as the season unfolded, neither plans materialized as hoped.[37] Bosh himself had a slow start to the season, but as mid-season approached, his form picked up and he was named Player of the Week for the second week of January.[38] On January 31, 2008, he was selected to be on the Eastern Conference team for the 2008 NBA All-Star Game.[39] In the meantime, Toronto continued to struggle and their problems were exacerbated when regular starting point guard T. J. Ford returned from injury and became frustrated playing backup to José Calderón.[37] Nevertheless, even with injuries to Bosh (15 games), Jorge Garbajosa (75 games) and Ford (31 games), the Raptors concluded the regular season with a 41–41 record, and clinched the sixth seed for the 2008 NBA Playoffs. However, they were defeated by the Orlando Magic in the first round, losing 4–1.[40] The first-round series against the Magic was touted as the matchup between two of the league's best young big men in Dwight Howard and Bosh, but the Raptors were perceived to have an advantage in their dual-point guard play.[41] But with Orlando holding home court advantage, the Raptors were unable to win their first two road games. In Game 1, Bargnani was deployed as the starting small forward but this did not pay dividends. Orlando took a huge lead in the first quarter and with Howard dominating the game, Toronto were unable to cut back on the deficit.[42] Game 2 saw Orlando opening up the first quarter with a big lead and Howard dominating yet again, but solid plays from Bosh, Kapono and Calderón gave the Raptors the lead with just a couple of minutes remaining in the game.[43] With 9 seconds left on the clock, Bosh had a chance to score the game-winning basket but his 18-foot jumper missed the mark.[43] In Game 3, Ford and Calderón stepped up their game, and the Raptors preserved some hope with a 108–94 home win.[44] Only one point separated both teams leading up to the fourth quarter in Game 4, and despite Bosh recording 39 points and 15 rebounds,[45] deadly shooting by the Magic in the final few minutes ensured victory for the visitors. Back on the road in Game 5, Toronto were outplayed by the Magic in the second half, and were eliminated from the first round four games to one. General Manager Bryan Colangelo said at a press conference thereafter, "Whether it's protecting [Bosh] inside the paint, getting a little bit more of a presence in there, to just getting him another scorer that's going to shoulder some of that burden, it's something that's clear we have to get better", hinting that changes to the squad beckoned for the next season.[46] Bosh said after the loss, "They played a great series, they executed on offense and defense better than we did and when it came to the small things, they did a better job... I can't sit here and bark in protest that the better team didn't win. That's pretty obvious. They beat us pretty good."[40] Unlike the previous campaign, Bosh was not named to any of the All-NBA teams.[47] Bosh at the 2009 All-Star GameTo provide Bosh with a frontcourt partner, a blockbuster trade was agreed before the 2008–09 campaign: six-time All-Star Jermaine O'Neal was acquired from the Indiana Pacers in exchange for Ford, Rasho Nesterovič, and Roy Hibbert, the 17th pick in the 2008 NBA Draft.[48] Bosh—who had won an Olympic gold medal with the national team at Beijing 2008—started the season strong and playing better defense than ever. He averaged 26 points, 10 rebounds and 3.7 assists in his first three games and was named Eastern Conference Player of the Week for the fifth time in his career.[49] A week later, he became Toronto's all-time leader in offensive rebounds, surpassing Antonio Davis's record.[50] While Bosh and O'Neal formed a formidable partnership in the frontcourt, the Raptors struggled to surpass the .500 mark. The principal deficiency of previous campaigns—wing players—continued to upend Toronto's progress.[51] With the Raptors at 8–9, head coach Sam Mitchell was sacked and replaced by Jay Triano.[52] Under the new regime, Bargnani finally blossomed as a player, but injuries and weaknesses in the roster meant that the Raptors entered the All-Star break 13 games under .500.[53] On January 29, 2009, Bosh was named an All-Star reserve,[54] but an injury ruled him out of the game. Two weeks later, in a bid to bring in a wing player and create greater salary flexibility, O'Neal and Jamario Moon were traded to Miami for Shawn Marion and Marcus Banks.[53] The trade did not improve the team's win–loss record, however, and the Raptors were eliminated from contention with seven games of the regular season remaining.[55] The bright spark in Bosh's campaign was his career-high 22.7 points per game, as well as his being one of two players in the league that season (the other being Dwight Howard) to average a 20/10 in points and rebounds.[56] In response to mounting speculation that he would seek a trade in the offseason, Bosh said that he would not.[57] On April 20, 2009, Colangelo announced that he would offer Bosh a contract extension during the summer,[58] but Bosh eventually said that he would not sign an extension.[59] [edit] A new team is built To prepare for the 2009–10 season, Bosh worked out under Ken Roberson, looking to add 20 pounds and bring his weight up to 250.[59] Following the failure of the 2008–09 campaign, Colangelo knew that he had to shake up the roster to persuade Bosh to stay, and the Raptors were one of the busiest teams in the pre-season market.[60] Toronto's lack of wing players was addressed by the the drafting of DeMar DeRozan and the acquisition of Hedo Türkoğlu, Devean George, Antoine Wright and Marco Belinelli, while former Georgia Tech team mate and Indiana point guard Jarrett Jack was also signed.[60] [edit] NBA career statistics Legend GP Games played GS Games started MPG Minutes per game FG% Field-goal percentage 3P% 3-point field-goal percentage FT% Free-throw percentage RPG Rebounds per game APG Assists per game SPG Steals per game BPG Blocks per game PPG Points per game Bold Career high Correct as of April 17, 2009[19] [edit] Regular season Year Team GP GS MPG FG% 3P% FT% RPG APG SPG BPG PPG 2003–04 Toronto 75 63 33.5 .459 .357 .701 7.4 1.0 .8 1.4 11.5 2004–05 Toronto 81 81 37.2 .471 .300 .760 8.9 1.9 .9 1.4 16.8 2005–06 Toronto 70 70 39.3 .505 .000 .816 9.2 2.6 .7 1.1 22.5 2006–07 Toronto 69 69 38.5 .496 .343 .785 10.7 2.5 .6 1.3 22.6 2007–08 Toronto 67 67 36.2 .494 .400 .844 8.7 2.6 .9 1.0 22.3 2008–09 Toronto 77 77 38.0 .487 .245 .817 10.0 2.5 .9 1.0 22.7 Career 439 427 37.1 .487 .288 .795 9.2 2.2 .8 1.2 19.6 All-Star 3 2 20.3 .517 .000 .429 7.3 1.3 .0 .0 11.0 [edit] Playoffs Year Team GP GS MPG FG% 3P% FT% RPG APG SPG BPG PPG 2006–07 Toronto 6 6 37.0 .396 .200 .842 9.0 2.5 .8 1.8 17.5 2007–08 Toronto 5 5 39.8 .472 .143 .833 9.0 3.6 1.6 .4 24.0 Career 11 11 38.3 .433 .167 .838 9.0 3.0 1.2 1.2 20.5 [edit] International career Medal record Competitor for United States Olympic Games Gold 2008 Beijing National team FIBA World Championship Bronze 2006 Japan National team Bosh with Team USA at the 2008 Beijing Olympic GamesBosh's international career began in 2002 when he was selected as a member of the 2002 USA Basketball Junior World Championship Qualifying Team that finished with a 4–1 record and the bronze medal.[61] After his NBA career began, Bosh was named in March 2006 to the 2006–2008 United States men's national basketball team program, and helped lead the team to a 5–0 record during its pre-World Championship tour.[61] In August 2006, Bosh was named as a member of the 2006 USA World Championship Team.[61] Together with fellow 2003 draftees Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, and Kirk Hinrich, this team competed in the 2006 FIBA World Championship. The team won the bronze medal, defeating former 2004 Olympic champion Argentina.[62] Bosh was ranked sixth in field goal percentage.[61] Following the 2006–07 season, Bosh was named to the team that would compete in the 2007 FIBA Americas tournament. However, he sustained a foot injury and withdrew from the squad.[63] On June 23, 2008, he was named to the team that would compete in the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.[64] During the tournament itself, Bosh operated as the main backup to center Dwight Howard as Team USA went unbeaten in all eight games en route to the gold medal, defeating Spain in the final.[65] He averaged 9.1 points per game, and led the team in rebounds with 6.1 a game.[66] [edit] Player profile You are not going to see a whole lot of screaming and hollering at guys... He is a guy that is going to pull somebody aside and say it in a positive way, and I think it goes a lot farther that way. —Anthony Parker on Bosh's leadership[67] Bosh, listed at 6 ft 10 in (2.08 m) and 230 pounds (104 kg),[19] possesses excellent speed, athleticism, and ball handling for a player of his size. He is particularly noted for his ability to drive to the basket and finish strong or get to the free throw line—where he is also proficient—but he is also known for his well-developed jump shot.[68] As the centerpiece of the Raptors' offence, when Bosh is double teamed, he is noted to unselfishly pass the ball to team mates who are in better shooting positions.[69] Bosh improved his shooting range when he worked on his three point shooting during the summer of 2006 and showed improvement in the 2006–07 season. On November 8, 2006, against the Philadelphia Sixers, he hit a game winning three point shot with 6.1 seconds left.[70] It was reminiscent of the shot that marked his "arrival" to the NBA in his first season, when he hit a game-tying three pointer against Houston to send the game to overtime.[2] When the 2006–07 season concluded, Bosh had shot .343 from the three point arc for the season; he improved to .400 the following season.[19] In terms of leadership, Bosh has always led by example. As the leader of the Raptors, he is not noted for being vocal on the court, preferring to maintain his quiet and humble demeanor but expecting his team mates to match his work ethic.[68] However, Bosh is also known to deliver stern rebukes to team mates who make bad calls on the court.[71] Comparisons have been made between him and Kevin Garnett due to their similar style of play and physique. Whereas the former does not possess the latter's defensive abilities, Bosh was observed to have adopted a greater defensive dimension to his game after his stint with Team USA at the 2008 Olympics where they won the gold medal.

In the field of philanthropy, given that he was only a few years removed from a childhood not without its financial challenges,[5] Bosh established the Chris Bosh Foundation in 2004. The Foundation's website describes the Foundation as "a non-profit organization promoting social enrichment, education and physical fitness among youth. The Foundation assists youth in reaching the educational and athletic goals they set through mentoring and setting examples in the community."[74] The Foundation, with programs in Toronto and Dallas, has worked closely with organizations such as the Toronto Special Olympics to raise important funding for community projects.[5] Bosh's mother, Freida, is the CEO of the Foundation.[74] As an avid reader, Bosh also regularly speaks to groups of Toronto children about the benefits of reading,[3] and has received the NBA Community Assist Award for his active contributions for the Raptors community development program in Toronto and Dallas during the course of the NBA campaign.[75] In November 2008, Bosh pledged to donate $75,000 to the Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada.[76] [edit] Paternity lawsuit On March 24, 2009, it was reported that Bosh's former girlfriend, Allison Mathis, was seeking child support and sole custody of their child. Mathis alleged that when she was seven months pregnant, Bosh stopped supporting her financially and tried to remove her from their home.[77] Three days later, it was reported that the dispute was only over quantum.[78] Mathis' lawyer also told the press, "My client very much wanted this dispute to remain private. Certainly this thing did not get started by anything on our side... She is very distressed that somehow this thing got into the newspapers.
