Lol he was a 1star recruit on espn and a 2 star recruit on V2. He’s doing good with D3 competition. I hope he succeeds but he isn’t the real deal at all
Very impressive young man. I hope he is maximizing the opportunities available to him at Yeshiva, in terms of learning, which can be very challenging to balance with the rigor of school and basketball commitments.
This is so amazing to watch. He is just showing no matter what religion you are you can still be what you want to be. Young Jewish athletes can really learn from Ryan
He definitely can play at a higher level but choose to play at Yeshiva University because of his faith, belief, and dedication, respect and salute for that
@@drebly8329 Well he played all four years there and pretty much graduated so the only next step is to declare for the draft weather he get or not get drafted. Sure he could've used another year from covid but yeah, cause everybody can declare for NBA draft when they graduated
He certainly has talent, though the thing is he's playing in DIII. Only a handful of DIII players have gone onto the NBA, but regardless there is a pathway given the fact.

that boy the jewish larry bird😭, na fr tho i like his game, at the next level he will be a supersized SG that can have some playmaking ability as a scorer and off ball wing with passing abilities. Some teams should definitely consider him in the 2nd round, maybe the grizzlies, lakers, nuggets, clippers, any contender really He will be a good role player at best which is very much fine. He can definitely have a joe ingles type of role i love the dudes game fr.
Yo that DEADLY FIRST STEP OFF THE SHIMMY WAS AN ELITE IQ NBA MOVE.. he’s got nba talent I see it and that wrist and for looks automatic same form every shot
People can say what they want I can see him in the league if given the chance and if he landed in the “Right “ situation I wish this young man the best in his basketball endevours 🔑
Be sick to have one of his Yeshiva University game worn kippahs autographed by him... and signed in Hebrew. That would be a cool ass piece of sports memorabilia... regardless if he makes it in the league or not... but I think this kid will have a successful run in the NBA tho. Guy does have Yahweh on his side!! Lol 😇😝
Nice story, and the guy clearly has game. But as others have noted, the NBA is an entirely different game. This kid doesn't look like he's ever seen a weight room, and I don't see him getting off a shot in the league or even getting open. If someone like Adam Morrison couldn't make it there is no way (maybe a better analogy would be Joe Dudek, the div III running back from Plymouth St. from years gone by). I think Turell has a very nice career ahead of him playing overseas, but his NBA prospects are zero.
Steph Curry isn't very muscular, especially his rookie year he was bones. And he did just fine. Also Kevin Durant couldn't bench press 185 even once at the combine and he did fine too.
@@Y0S3F Have a closer look. Steph's body is 100% different from when he entered the league. Sure, this kid could fill out, too, but comparing him to game-changing talents like Curry (who essentially defined the new era of extreme long-distance shooting) and Durant (6'10" but with a 7'5" wingspan, basically making him unguardable) is more than a stretch. Not to mention that both Curry and Durant played DI in college in the first place. I wish Turell luck...but if he makes it to the league I'll eat my hat.
@@scottd5705 I don't think the weight room is a requirement for great basketball. That's all I'm saying. Zach LaVine is also thin. 6'5 and 200. (LaVine was only 181 pounds when he was drafted.) Ryan Turell is 6'7 195. And LaMelo Ball is even smaller. He's 6'7 181! Tiny! I'm not comparing basketball style between players or D1 and D3. You're making a lot of different arguments to disqualify Turell. He happens to be a great three point shooter, was accepted to d1 schools. Who knows if he'd have the same stats in d1. He might have seen very little playing time because he keeps the sabbath, and unfortunately they might not have been amenable to that in a nonjewish school. But I'm really just responding to your point about bulking in the weight room. A lot of thin weak dudes play in the NBA.
@@Y0S3F Point taken. Yup, there are certainly skinny guys in the NBA. I just don't see the justification for this level of hype over a guy who plays DIII. Yes, he did supposedly have a few DI offers...but what I read were places like Cal St. Northridge and Southern Utah...'nuff said. I think we should just agree that we both wish him the best of luck. I'd be very happy to see him prove me wrong and do better than play in a second tier overseas league for years (which is my guess). Nothing wrong with that at all, but that's where I'd bet he lands.
@@scottd5705 I think it's fair to say that making the NBA is a long shot (I hope it happens) and if he makes the league he's looking to separate himself by shooting and high IQ play (an ideal outcome would be a duncan robinson). Only way he can make/stay in the league is if he shoots the 3 ball at an insane clip. Otherwise there's a zero percent chance. But given his height, if he can shoot the 3 at an extremely high level, he has sufficient athleticism to be in the leaguer as a role player (he'll need to get stronger and work on quickness as do most college players).
notice how all his highlights are against teams that aren’t nearly as good, and they’re all tiny D1 schools? with any sort of actual talent defending him then i think he won’t do well. but high hopes when he meets giannis in the paint or myles turner
Will b the first Orthodox Jew in NBA history.. Y do we care about that? If ESPN didn't announce the history he could make, I wouldn't care, not 1 bit. But y is he the 1st? Is it because they don't like blacks, or is it because the Nba owners don't like Jews??? Lets stop recognizing people's religion, skin color, sexual and race preference! Nba fans shouldn't care! it has nothing to dp with basketball! Tells us whos the first Nba player from another league, the first nba player still in high school, the first nba player under 5 ft tall, the first over 400 ibs, the first to play a season in the nfl, the first to get drafted over 35 years old, the first referee turn player, owner turn player, first to score over 110 pts, first to get drafted and turn down a multi-million dollar contract for a career in law enforcement starting at 40 thousand a year!. There's many possibilities at being first in something. We should just recognize things that players and coaches do or dont do! Not things that they can't control like what race!
his mom was at one of the games and even though she was on the other team she was still soooooo sweet to all of us such a great woman
What do you mean she was on the other team?

Great story. Just one thing @9:48 - he dropped 41 in that game, not 31. Love that he knew the cameras were there for him and decided to ball out
This is really special to see a Jewish kid get a chance to be on a platform such as overtime !! Keep representing
Kids an amazing player, irrespective of his religion. He’s the real deal. Love his game.

so proud of this kid.is the "real deal" in more ways than one.
I got a lot of respect for his game and his attitude.

Good luck to him! Looks like a great person!
Reminds me of Larry bird- his shot, his game, his look…uncanny
His personality reminds me of Matthew Mconaghey in the movies. Wish the kid the best. He’s special.
