Orthodox Jew drafted in NBA minors

I dont know how many people watch the NBA minor league draft, but I definitely do not. In case you missed it like I did, Ryan Turell the star of the Yeshiva University basketball team that went on an historic 50 game win streak, has been drafted by an NBA minor league affiliate team - the affiliate for the Detroit Pistons.


Turell was drafted 27th. 

This is a big accomplishment for a Jewish, and needless to say Orthodox, athlete.

We watch with interest how he will navigate the challenges as an orthodox Jew and we wish him much success. Detroit has a sizeable Jewish community, so he should be able to get whatever he needs out there.

Turell is keeping the dream alive for Orthodox Jewish boys all over America...
