A team player does what ever most of the time they are not the top scorer or their name in the paper every week. They do the stuff that make every one else look good. They are the players that work on the off season, the one that the coaches know that they are in the will play solid and do the little things and when they come off the court they are black and blue because they will dive for the ball. I have notice alot of them even gets over look by some of their coaches. I would rather have 5 team players than 1 super star that will not put in the effort to make the team better.
