Jordan Hulls’ 27th birthday was supposed to be more special than the ones that came before.
His wife, Aubrey, was scheduled to give birth to their first child on April 16, 2017.
During her pregnancy, Jordan was playing with Eisbaren Bremerhaven, a professional team in Germany that played in the BBL, the highest level league of professional club basketball in the country.
He had a plane ticket to come home during the season around the expected due date.
The season was going well for Jordan, the starting point guard of his team, leading them in assists and 3-point shooting throughout the first few months.
