 Two young Nigerians Giannis Adetokunbo and Victor Oladipo have been drafted into NBA. The youngster, were drafted this morning at the NBA draft event.

Oladipo 22 was drafted in the No 2 by Orlando Magic while Adetokunbo 18 was drafted in the 15th pick by Milwackee Bucks.

This is a big break for Nigeria after the 1st draft pick of Hakeem Olajuwon in 1984.
Victor Oladipo was picked at Indiana University where he played while Giannis Adetokunbo was picked out of Greece.

We hope that these two new professional basketballers will have a successful career and hopefully play for Nigeria.
