Thursday Night the NBA held their draft for the 2019-2020 season. This years class ranged in talent, universities and countries. Everyone knew Zion Williamson was going to be picked #1 but some were a little shocked that he broke down after it all became official.

 

That moment was very sweet and like he said to have something he’s been dreaming about since the age of 4 finally become his reality, it was a lot to take in. Zion’s mother was his basketball coach growing up so he credits his success to her. It’s also great to see that Zion has a Black Woman Agent on his team to continue down his road of success. Angie and Lore’l share their thoughts on the top 3 draft picks…

 

 

Also Lore’l breaks down our very own Washington Wizards making history by selecting Rui Hachimura, the first Japenese player to be drafted in the NBA draft! The “Japanese Jumpman” had an eventful night and day as DC welcomed him!

 

 

As a good teammate does, John Wall facetimed him while he’s away rehabbing to make sure Rui got his text (lol) and officially welcome him to the team.
