As you all know the NBA draft has been going on this last week and for some young players the ultimate dream came through.
One player that really made history was the Forward player of the Oregon Ducks Arsalan Kazemi who got drafted by the 7Sixers. With a 9.2 points per game and a total of 912 rebounds throughout his college season leaves him as the number one rebounder in college basketball. Now the reason he made history was because Kazemi is the first Iranian born player who get drafted to the NBA after college.
The first Iranian basketball player in the NBA was Hamed Haddadi who plays for the Memphis Grizzlies, but he did not play college ball before entering the NBA.
Kazemi was one of the last players getting drafted and in my opinion he is an underrated player who will make a big name in the league if he will get the chance.
