A. J. Bramlett
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Aaron Jordan Bramlett (born January 10, 1977 in DeKalb, Illinois) is an American basketball player, currently playing for ASK Riga. At 6-foot, 10-inches, he usually plays a center or post position, but at only 220 pounds he sometimes has a hard time against physical play.
Bramlett was a three-year letterman at La Cueva High School in Albuquerque, New Mexico, leading the Bears to a state championship in 1994. He committed to the University of Arizona in 1995 and played for the Wildcats for four years, rising to sixth on the school's career list for rebounding and 25th in scoring. He also helped Arizona win the NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Championship in 1997.
In 1999, Bramlett was taken by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the second round of the 1999 NBA Draft. Bramlett played only eight games with Cleveland, and was waived in January 2000. He joined Grupo Capitol Valladolid in the Spanish League in that year, and in 2001 moved to Caprabo Lleida (now Plus Pujol Lleida). In 2005 he moved to CB Sevilla, but left the club on January 2006. In September 2006, he joined ASK Riga, and as of mid-October 2006, is the leading rebounder in Baltic Basketball League.
