Dylan Harper's Mom Takes Center Stage At NBA Draft Night

Harper joins the likes of Zach Wilson and Antoine Winfield Jr. as players whose mothers stole the spotlight on their Draft nights.

Harper averaged 19.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, and four assists in his lone season with the Scarlet Knights, a part of a trailblazing class of college rookies going straight to the pros. His offensive production and all-around playmaking will continue to help the growing strides the San Antonio Spurs are making. Harper joins a Spurs team that boasts consecutive Rookies of the Year in Stephon Castle and Victor Wembanyama.

He likely wants to create his own story, but it would be nice to replicate the championship pedigree of his father, who won three titles with the Chicago Bulls and two with the Los Angeles Lakers. Harper is undoubtedly in the correct organization to do so, as San Antonio boasts the fifth-most titles in league history.

Hopefully, his game can translate to the pros, so his mom won't be the only thing fans remember about him from this Draft night in a few years.
