Big congrats to former Folsom HS and Sonoma State Cossack for getting drafted in NBA to Grizz. What a story. No stars, no rankings, no prep school... If you are good they will find you! Knecht is the same story.
Jaylen Wells NBA !

Great to see another Sacramento guy make it. I have a feeling he’s going to stick in the league for a while.
Congrats also to Zyon Pullin, who signed a 2-way with Miami today. The College Park High grad played at Riverside and finished out his collegiate career as an All conference selection at Florida this season.
Couldn't agree more. 6'8 in shoes and can guard several positions and offensively very skilled. The hunger and I was passed over motivation can never be discounted. I watched this kid work his butt off training with Danielle Vigilone over the years. Just continued to get better.
Yes, and Jordan Ford before them playing in G League, but anybody in these parts who has watched closely isn't very high on Lyons making an NFL roster yet alone being a good college player.
The younger brother is the real deal however. Sky is the limit for him.

He had like 28 yesterday in a summer league game. Pretty amazing on how difficult it is to get in the league period Folsom hs will have two guys on rosters next year assuming ford sticks with someone again.Report: Former WSU wing Jaylen Wells to make nearly $8M in rookie NBA contract

Speaking of Jordan Ford: I am like 99.8% sure I saw him reffing games at the St. Mary's scrimmage event a few weeks ago... Sure looked like him to me... Especially when, during breaks in the action, he'd grab a ball and take 30-footers, seemingly making over 50% of them... Even the misses just barely missed. And he took some longer shots, even halfcourt... Made a decent number of those, too.
Like we said. Dude is going to stick around. Really incredible story when you think about it.
Kiddmann, I bet that was Ford. Looks like a smaller steph. Bummer he was't a tad bigger because he can really play.
Mason Forbes from that Folsom era is playing pro overseas also. Wall's had some good teams.
Overall Jaylen has looked very good in summer league including tonight when he had a strong second half for Grizzlies in a win. Great kid. So happy to see his success.
