Jimmer's Game

Thursday night we went to"Jimmer's All Star Basketball Game" at the Marriott Center. Basically both teams were made up of top college NBA draft picks that came to play a exposition game. Paul and I got to go with the Taylors and the Packs and it was really fun to see all these great athletes playing together: Kemba Walker, Kenneth Faried, Kawhi Leonard, Isaiah Thomas Jr, Chris Singleton, Tyler Honeycutt, and of course Jackson Emery and Jimmer Fredette to name a few. A few of them were so HUGE too it was unbelievable how high they could jump. The game was very fast paced and high scoring so it was really fun to watch. At the end they just started dunking for fun on both sides as the time ran out. There was also an...unforgettable... half time show by Jimmer's rapper brother TJ. There was a great sense of showmanship and comradery so it made it a great game, and of course it was awesome to see Jimmer play in the Marriott again.
