              former prep standout at North Clayton
            
            
              High School., who is now confined to a
            
            
              wheelchair after a fluke traffic accident.
            
            
              On May 19, the ”Walk for ZAC,” a com-
            
            
              munity walk and rally beginning at North

              injured community for more than 10 years.
            
            
              Turning out on Saturday to support
            
            
              Bradley was enough talent to put together
            
            
              pretty good basketball team, along with
            
            
              coaches, a trainer and even administrative
            
            
              support.
            
            
              Bradley played for Clayton State in the
            
            
              2010/2011 season as a freshman, helping
            
            
              pace the Lakers to a 19-10 mark. He was
            
            
              leaving the Clayton State campus on May
            
            
              25, 2011, when, during a terrible storm, a
            
            
              tree fell on his car.
            
            
              Bradley was transported to Grady
            
            
              Memorial Hospital, where he underwent
            
            
              multiple surgeries on his brain, neck and
            
            
              spinal cord. He spent the summer of 2011
            
            
              in rehabilitation at the Shepherd Center in
            
            
              Atlanta, before coming home in the fall.

              Clayton State University, and, no, it’s not
            
            
              Loch, although, like Loch this person has
