Have not heard from the Jewish Jordan in a while?
Check out this interview Gelf Magazine held with Tamir Goodman, once dubbed the Jewish Jordan.
Goodman is probably the first Orthodox guy to play basketball professionally in Israel. He has served in the Israeli army after he became a citizen. he was featured once in Sports Illustrated, which made him fairly famous and he hit the scene with a splash.
I personally have not heard updates from him in a while and this interview with him was interesting. He mentions God a lot, as he speaks humbly.
