Jermaine O'Neal tells a story about Rick Pitino helping him on his decision to go to the NBA straight out of high school:
“I was going to go to Kentucky. Shout out to Rick Pitino man. Like he recruited me and this was like the realest thing man. My mother loved him man. She loved him. He was sitting in our living room he said look man, he said Jermaine he came all four times on the visits and he said look everything I know about you and your family, you know, the struggles the things you’re going through. He said we’re going to be good with you or we going to be good without you. Would love to have you, but you should go pro. And that was the realest thing, bro.”
