Ryan Turell
Turell, who went unpicked out of Yeshiva University in June’s NBA draft, was chosen by the Motor City Cruise, the Detroit Pistons’ G League affiliate.
The two basketball players—one Jewish and one Muslim—participated in a panel discussion and led a basketball clinic for 65 kids.
“He’s that talented, and we all know it. He’s a selfless kid who worked hard and stayed within the offense to produce,” said Yeshiva University head coach basketball Elliot Steinmetz of 22-year-old, 6-foot-7-inch senior guard Ryan Turell.
