This summer, we kept the lights on all night, every night, at five soccer fields across New York City. This was the scene at Calvert Vaux Park in Gravesend, Brooklyn Tuesday night.
Ibrahim and Omar Ali grew up in the West Bank waking up at 4am to watch NBA games, sometimes playing just 5 games a season because of checkpoints and road closures.
They grew up on Kyrie, whose posts made them feel like they had an ally in the NBA. Omar's dream is to hand him his Palestine national team jersey one day.
Now Ibrahim is the only West Bank born Palestinian American on a men's college roster, and Omar is drawing D1 interest.
Beautiful story from @MirinFader 🙏 https://t.co/M9RKv0x3MC

No one actually believes drake doesn't write his raps. They just go with it cause the alternative would be accepting that drake is in fact the greatest to ever do it.
