All-Delco and Chester High standout Rondae Hollis-Jefferson didn't last long in Portland.
The Clipper was selected by the Trail Blazers with the 23rd pick in the draft. The Portland promptly shipped him off to the Brooklyn Nets.
Staff writer Terry Toohey was in the Barclays Center last night and has the details.
Hollis-Jefferson was not alone in the Big Apple. A huge contingent of Chester folks and Clippers fans made the hike to fete the Chester High product on his big night.
Hollis-Jefferson spent two seasons at the University of Arizona before turning pro, seeking to follow in the footsteps of Chester High guard Jameer Nelson, who followed up a sterling career at Saint Joe's with a long NBA career.
One thing you have to say about Chester athletes. They rarely forget where they came from.
We're proud of you, Rondae!
