Kentucky has no @NFL team, so I cheer for the @Bengals because it’s close to my family in NKY.
No @MLB team, so I cheer for the @Reds because my Grandpa did.

Y’all are gonna be sick of me saying this but genuinely, it is so incredibly cool to see a kid from Laurel County balling on national television with the best players in the country. Just wild and so happy to be able to watch.
