The Golden State Warriors drafted Adonal Foyle out of Colgate, with the 8th pick of the 1997 Draft . Adonal was the pick before Tracy McGrady. He went on to play 10 seasons with the Warriors.
Adonal averaged 4.1 points and 1.6 blocks per game. His amazing stats earned him a contract for 42 Million over 6 years with the Warriors…
After he was waived by the Warriors, the Orlando Magic picked him up, then he was traded to the Memphis Grizzlies. Then the Grizzlies waived him and he ended up back with the Magic.
Now Adonal is a poet and a political activist.
