“This is an amazing time for me,” Fredette said. “I’m looking forward to preparing for an NBA career, and this project will allow me to share the excitement I’m feeling with the fans who have been with me for my college career. Putting this on the internet means basketball fans everywhere can follow this great opportunity that I’m blessed to have.”
Chris Bosh is a busy man these days… in the midst of the NBA playoffs, the George Harrison of the Heatles married fiancee Adrienne Nicole Miller. The marriage came just days before the Heat’s opening round against the Philadelphia 76ers but was kept a secret until the marriage license leaked. According to TMZ, on April 5 a marriage license was filed stating: Christopher Wesson Bosh and his bride Adrienne Nicole Williams were to marry by “clergy” conducted on April 9.
Despite the Heat being on the verge of closing out the 76ers in tomorrow’s Game 4, all questions were on Bosh’s alleged secret wedding. The 27-year old center denied any leaked documents saying, “Not yet, man, not yet. I was made aware of stuff leaking out or supposed information leaking out. Yes, I am scheduled to be married, but we’re not there yet.”
Despite being the No.1 overall seed in the NBA, the Chicago Bulls struggled against the Indiana Pacers in Game 1 of the playoffs…that is until Derrick Rose scored 39 points to help the Bulls come from behind and win, 104-99. After the game, Pacers guard Danny Granger described Rose’s persistence like a “crazy stalker ex-girlfriend. Every time you tell her you don’t want to talk to her, she’ll show up at your door again.”
BYU’s Jimmer Fredette is too cool for school. The basketball superstar has been told not to go to class by school officials because he is a “distraction to students.” Since Fredette’s return from the NCAA tournament, Fredette cannot go anywhere in Provo without being asked for autographs or pictures… and that includes the classroom. BYU has instead asked Fredette to take online classes.
According to Jimmer’s father Al Fredette, “It was getting too disruptive. He can’t go anywhere in Provo without being recognized.”
While Fredette has no officially declared for the NBA draft, he is expected to go early in the first round.
