Timeline
Mickell Jawaun Gladness (born July 26, 1986) is an American professional basketball player, who last played for Arka Gdynia of the Polish Basketball League (PLK).
Gladness was born in Jasper, Alabama and grew up in Sylacauga where he attended Sylacauga High School from 2000 to 2004.
In his first and only season playing basketball for Lawson State Community College, Gladness averaged modest numbers with 3.1 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.2 blocks per game.
He transferred to Alabama A&M in 2005 where he played out the remaining three years of his college eligibility.
At Alabama A&M, Gladness majored in business management.
Due to NCAA rules where a player does not have to sit out one full season if he or she transfers up a division (in this case, from a community college up to Division I) Gladness was able to begin playing immediately as a true sophomore in 2005–06.
He appeared in 26 games and blocked 77 shots.
It was in his junior season, however, that Gladness made a name for himself in college basketball.
Playing in 30 games, Gladness led the nation in blocked shots per game at 6.3, with an adjusted-per-40 minutes rate of 7.9 bpg.
He set an NCAA Division I single game record with 16 blocks against Texas Southern on February 24, 2007.
No other player in Division I history has even recorded 15 blocks in a single game.
Despite showing similar statistics otherwise, Gladness' blocks per game average dropped to 4.5 for his senior year.
It is speculated that opposing players now knew of his shot-blocking ability and avoided getting too close for him to block their shots.
Although he did not repeat as the NCAA season shots blocked leader, he did graduate having blocked 396 shots in only three seasons of Division I basketball, which was good enough to be in the all-time top 25 when he graduated.
In his final two seasons, Gladness was a first-team All-Southwestern Athletic Conference selection.
