[I]Was there ever a doubt among anyone who spent considerable time around Napier at [URL='http://www.courant.com/topic/sports/college-sports/uconn-huskies-ORSPT000004-topic.html']UConn[/URL] that he would stick in the NBA? He’s five seasons in and approaching professional basketball with the same pluck and charisma that defined his time with the Huskies, which included national championships as a freshman under [URL='http://www.courant.com/topic/sports/basketball/jim-calhoun-hpa2011-topic.html']Jim Calhoun[/URL] and as a senior under [URL='http://www.courant.com/topic/sports/basketball/kevin-ollie-hpa2314-topic.html']Kevin Ollie[/URL].

“You know what?” said Napier, 27. “That was never my worry, sticking. My worry, my ambition, is to be really, really good in this league. That's what haunts me every night, trying to be a powerful impact player. I'm not going to rest.”[/I]
