Since I was little, I've played high school students. BOSTON PUBLIC was my first job where I played a high school student and pretty much every job after that. I guess, what you believe becomes real." PHOTOS: DAYS OF OUR LIVES basketball game The 19th Annual DAYS OF OUR LIVES Celebrity Basketball Game was held on May 30th.
