Dallas native Julius Randle thought his visit to the Bronx this morning was only to celebrate the groundbreaking of a permanent site for the @EMNRSchoolNYC.
Instead, he was presented with the honor of bearing his name on the school’s new basketball court.dallasnews.com/sports/maveric… – 1:45 PM

Through his “30 for 3” program, NYK’s Julius Randle has raised $1.3M for Earl Monroe New Renaissance Basketball School in Bronx. He’s funded addition of 8 full time literary teachers. Reading levels of more than 200 students have increased by several grade levels at the school. pic.x.com/cfvftyiipn – 10:27 AM

Karl-Anthony Towns was born in New Jersey, went to college in Kentucky and has spent the entirety of his NBA career in Minnesota. His roots, however, are in the Dominican Republic. To continue paying homage to his late mother’s homeland, Towns announced plans Thursday to help build a state-of-the-art basketball training facility in the country, one where children will get top-notch coaching and access to physical therapy, classroom space, meeting space and more. Groundbreaking in Santiago, Dominican Republic, is set for next year, with plans calling for completion in 2026. -via ESPN / September 26, 2024
