  • Press Release
    Chris Dudley Chris Dudley is a Yale graduate turned NBA player with type 1 diabetes, who started his career with the Cleveland Cavaliers after being drafted in 1987. Over his 16 year career, he played for four other teams including the New York Knicks and the Portland Trail Blazers. Diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at age 16, Dudley understood first-hand the importance of reaching out to children with the condition. The Chris Dudley Foundation was established in 1994 to provide young people with diabetes the support needed to achieve their dreams. Through the foundation, Chris established the only basketball camp in the country for children with diabetes. Chris’ efforts in the diabetes community have not been overlooked. He is the recipient of the "A star in the fight" Award (ADA), Hero Night award (JDRF Children's Congress), J. Walter Kennedy Citizenship Award, USA Today's Most Caring Athlete Award, Confidence Award (Whittier Institute), Governor Barbara Roberts Quality of Life Award and the Non-Partisan USA Freedom Corp Award for community service (presented by President George W. Bush). Dudley also serves on the Board of Directors for the ADA and JDRF. Although he retired from the NBA in 2003, retirement had a new meaning for Dudley. He became active in politics and in 2010, he ran in the Oregon gubernatorial race. Today, he has partnered with Novo Nordisk, a global health care company dedicated to diabetes care, to raise awareness of the importance of properly managing blood glucose levels and to demonstrate that diabetes management can be successfully integrated into your life.

REEVALUATING AMATEURISM STANDARDS IN MEN'S COLLEGE BASKETBALL Marc Edelman* This Note argues that courts should interpretNCAA conduct under the Principle of Amateurism as a violation of§ 1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act and that courts should order NCAA deregulation of student-athletes' indirectfinancial activities. Part I of this Note discusses the history of NCAA regulation, specifically its Prin- ciple of Amateurism. Part II discusses the current impact of antitrust laws on the NCAA. Part III argues that the NCAA violates antitrust laws because the Princi- ple of Amateurism's overall effect is anticompetitive. Part IV argues the NCAA could institute an amateurism standard with a net pro-competitive effect by allow- ing student-athletes to pursue business opportunities neutral to college budgets; potential revenue sources would include: summer professional leagues, endorse- ment contracts, and paid-promotionalappearances.
