Yesterday, we had 3 Chicago Bulls Training Academy players in the profiled in the sports section of the Chicago Sun-Times on their top 50 players list. These young men have been trained at the Chicago Bulls Training Academy since they were in 6th grade.

The players are: Drew Crawford, Naperville Central High School, Diamond Taylor, Bolingbrook High School and Zeke Upshaw, University High School in Chicago. Drew signed a letter of intent to play basketball and attend Northwestern University. Diamond signed a letter of intent to play basketball and attend the University of Wisconsin. Zeke signed a letter of intent to play basketball and attend Illinois State University.

I am extremely proud of all three young men because of their character and work ethic. They have all worked hard to obtain scholarships to these fine institutions. Congratulations fellas!!!
