Hey all,
So, just out of curiosity; was Christian Laettner ever called "Chris?" I can't seem to recall it ever happening, but having someone being called by their entire first name, rather than a shortened version, is somewhat uncommon, no?
I believe his teammates called him Chris, much to the surprise of said brother.

Christian's brother Chris was a minor league baseball umpire. He worked in the South Atlantic League, among other assignments, around 15 or so years ago.
