Bernard Ronald James (born February 7, 1985) is an American professional basketball player who currently plays for the Shanghai Sharks of the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA). He played college basketball for Florida State University. ==Background== In a 2012 piece for ''The Tipoff'', the magazine of the United States Basketball Writers Association, ''ESPN.com'' writer Dana O'Neil called James...the most unconventional of high school dropouts, a kid who grew disenchanted with the social hierarchy of school yet would head to Barnes & Noble to read on the days that he cut.〔 After dropping out, he earned his GED, and shortly afterwards enlisted in the United States Air Force while still 17.〔 He served six years in the Air Force as a security forces specialist, attaining the rank of Staff Sergeant. He was assigned to the 9th Security Forces Squadron at Beale Air Force Base〔(Beale Airman turned NBA pro )〕〔(For Florida State Center, Military Was a Steadying Influence )〕 and deployed in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom to Iraq, Qatar, and Afghanistan.〔(Bernard James discusses path from Air Force serviceman to NBA rookie )〕 He initially planned to have a career in the military, but was drafted onto an intramural basketball team at his base. During this time, he underwent a late growth spurt of 5 inches (13 cm), and soon rose through the ranks of military basketball to the Air Force's all-star team. This in turn led him to pursue basketball as a potential career path; when his enlistment term expired, he left the Air Force and enrolled at Tallahassee Community College so that he could eventually fully qualify for NCAA Division I.〔
