Ponchatoula’s Allen Graves gets selected 19th overall by the Toronto Raptors.

First player from Tangipahoa Parish to be selected in the first round of the NBA Draft. @FOX8NOLA

[Madeline Adams @MadelineAdamsTV]

Former Newman standout Chris Cenac Jr. drafted 27th overall to the Boston Celtics.

Good spot for the LaPlace native who led the Houston Cougars in rebounding as a freshman this past season. @FOX8NOLA

In Brooklyn tonight, Allen Graves will be patiently waiting to hear his name called at the NBA Draft.

From an under-recruited prospect out of high school to one of the best freshmen in the country, Graves is representing Ponchatoula well on his way to the league. @FOX8NOLA

LSU picked up their fourth commitment at WR with Gary Burney, Jr. flipping from Houston to the Tigers.

Lane Kiffin and the Tigers still have a spot open for a fifth WR in their 2027 class, possibly Easton Royal. The Brother Martin receiver is committed to the Texas Longhorns.

It will take between $750K to $1 million to land the 5-star recruit. It's #GarlandontheAvenue
