It’s been a long road for Jake Layman to get to this point.
When Maryland honored their seniors on Thursday, Layman got his much-deserved day in the sun.
Back in 2012, Layman was a highly touted forward coming out of King Philip Regional High School in Massachusetts. He was the 19th best small forward at his position, according to 247Sports.
Ahead of Layman were guys like Kyle Anderson, Justin Anderson, Sam Dekker, and Jerami Grant. All of those players were drafted to the NBA over the past two seasons.
