Bradley Considers Politics
St Louis AP Bradley of the New York Knicks remains undecided about a run for Missouri state treasurer. The Crystal City Rhodes scholar met with Democratic leaders in St Louis and said his focus is the treasurer’s race with a filing deadline of April 25 for the August primary. He earns 60,000 to sign and, if elected treasurer, would face leaving basketball. An NY sportscaster quipped Missouri could become the first state to never spend a penny if he wins.
