Dreams do come true kids. If a wish is on your heart, put it out to the universe and it will deliver. Don’t believe me? Let’s look at the case of Milwaukee Bucks big man Ekpe Udoh. Udoh has been searching for actress Betty White since last year. Apparently the flame was ignited early in life when he used to watch the “Golden Girls” with his mom.
The Bucks were in LA this week to face off against the Clippers – that was the game when Jamal Crawford through a between the legs lob to Blak Griffin – when somehow, Udoh finally connected with White. Of course he took to Twitter to celebrate mission accomplished.
