Steve Francis hasn't played a single regular season minute for the Rockets yet this season, and he's looked pouty on the bench at times to boot.
Not a good combination.
So when the rumor floats around that he's not even wearing his jersey under his warmups during games because he's been spotted on television without it right after, it's not too hard to believe it.
However, it's not accurate, says a rock solid source. Francis gave his jersey away to a fan after the game and has done so for every game. In fact, Steve purchased 82 of his jerseys before the season so that he could give them away at each game, home and away.
So we can put that rumor to bed.
Update @ 4:20pm: Hilltopper of the Clutch BBS posted a video from KPRC Channel 2 Sports that shows Francis giving away his jersey last night to a young Rockets fan.
