Rafael Araújo (basketball)
Rafael Paulo de Lara Araújo, nicknamed "Baby" and later "Bàbby" in Brazil,〔 ((:ʁafaˈɛɫ aɾaˈuʒu); born August 12, 1980) is a Brazilian professional basketball player. He played for three years in the National Basketball Association, a career largely marred by major failure.
==College career==
After attending Padre Anacleto High School in São Paulo, Araújo went to the United States to play college basketball, attending Arizona Western College in Yuma, Arizona. In his freshman season (2000–01), he averaged 12.1 points and 8.4 rebounds per game.〔(Prospect Profile: Rafael Araujo (Ha-fay-el Ar-RU-joe) )〕 Araújo later explained that AWC coach Kelly Green gave him $400 to get his visa and establish himself in Yuma, despite coaches being forbidden to do so.〔 As a sophomore, he tallied 17.9 points and 10.7 rebounds per game,〔 leading the Matadors to a 28-3 record and a top ten national ranking among junior colleges.〔 He was named Region Most Valuable Player and 2nd Team NJCAA All-American.〔 At the same time Araújo was drafted for the Brazil national basketball team at the 2002 World Championships, as NBA player Nenê could not attend the tournament.〔
After finishing his junior college career, Araújo moved to Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah where as a junior (2002–03), he averaged 12.0 points and 8.9 rebounds per game〔(Brigham Young Cougars Statistics - 2002-03 )〕 (second in the Mountain West Conference). In his senior season, Araújo led BYU in scoring (18.4 points per game), rebounding (10.1 rebounds per game), steals (43 total), and blocked shots (25).〔(Brigham Young Cougars Statistics - 2003-04 )〕 He was named Co-Player of the Year in the Mountain West Conference, sharing the honor with Air Force's Nick Welch.〔(Araujo still eligible for MWC tourney )〕〔 He was named 2nd Team NCAA All-American by ''Basketball Times'' and Honorable Mention All-American by the Associated Press.
With his size and strength, the 6-foot-11, 295-pound Araújo impressed many pro scouts during his senior season. On December 6, 2003, he dominated a tough Oklahoma State team, totaling 32 points and 17 rebounds in BYU's 76-71 upset victory.〔(BYU 76, Oklahoma State 71 )〕 He concluded his collegiate career with a 24-point, 12-rebound performance in the Cougars' 80-75 loss to Syracuse in the NCAA Tournament.〔〔(McNamara drains nine 3s for career-high 43 )〕
