Allan Houston is my New York hero. He was the starting shooting guard for the New York Knicks from 1996 to 2005 and brought great success to the Knicks franchise during his run. The reason I chose Allan Houston as my New York hero is because he is very humble, calm, assertive, and just an overall nice guy on and off the court. He doesn’t just help his team on the court, he helps charities and organizations off the court. He is a great role model for any kids out there that want to become successful in life and just want to be great individuals. I am in many ways like Allan Houston because I too am a calm, humble, and nice person in general. This is why Allan Houston is my New York hero.
