It’s around 10:00pm in Brooklyn. The date is June 25, 2015, and the NBA Draft is underway. The Portland Trail Blazers are on the clock and ready to make a selection with their draft pick, pick number twenty-three. Portland selected Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, a small forward out of the University of Arizona.
Within the hour Hollis-Jefferson would be trading in his red Trail Blazers hat which matched with his plaid red pants, for a black and white draft cap, one in which displayed a big Brooklyn Nets logo and a design on the underside of the brim.
